CUE1, A Device that Lessens the Parkinson Syndrome
In 2019, Yung founded Charco Neurotech, a startup based in Cambridge, named in honor of Jean-Martin Charcot. The company developed the CUE1, a wearable device designed to alleviate Parkinson’s symptoms. The CUE1 consists of a small plastic disc housing an electric motor, which is worn on the sternum. The device emits high-frequency vibrations in a pattern proven to mitigate Parkinson’s symptoms through cueing.
