About Cerca Magnetics
Cerca Magnetics develops the Cerca OPM-MEG System, a wearable magnetoencephalography (MEG) brain imaging system built on optically-pumped magnetometers (OPMs). The system uses a helmet that adapts to different head sizes and lets participants move during a scan. It is offered as a research system and does not have medical or regulatory approvals in any jurisdiction.
The company sells its research systems to research institutions, including universities and hospitals working in neuroscience, epilepsy, mental health, dementia and brain injury. Its product line includes adaptable helmets, magnetically-shielded rooms and a fully-integrated scanner. Named customers mentioned on the site include Young Epilepsy in Kent, the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, and universities in the US and Switzerland.
Cerca Magnetics Limited was formed on 24 July 2020 as a spinout from the University of Nottingham, in partnership with Magnetic Shields Ltd. The company is headquartered in Nottingham, United Kingdom. Its team includes co-founders Matthew Brookes, David Woolger, Elena Boto, Ryan Hill and Niall Holmes.
