Founded in 2008 in Cleveland, Ohio, Cryothermic Systems develops medical devices that cool the body rapidly and noninvasively, led by its Cryo Cooling System for targeted temperature management. Its activated cooling packs reach -5°C in seconds and are designed to start cooling in the field before patients reach emergency, cardiac, or intensive care. The company was founded by Harvard-trained cardiothoracic surgeon Aqeel Sandhu and was formerly known as Life Core Technologies.

NeuroIntact, IncFounded in April 2023 by Bryan Nicholson, Baltimore-based NeuroIntact develops precision temperature-modulation devices for hospitalized patients. Its VCool™ system uses noninvasive intranasal technology to cool or warm the core body, weighing about 22 pounds and mounting to a standard IV pole rather than relying on bulky conventional consoles. The company’s first-in-human study demonstrated measurable cooling in awake participants without adjunctive pharmaceuticals.BALTIMORE, MD
