For Clinicans, Researchers,
and Hospitals

Neurocognitive assessment during brain surgery varies across clinicians and institutions, limiting standardization and outcome-driven care decisions. MindTrace supports clinical teams to align and integrate functional measures of neurocognitive performance with standard of care anatomical and neurophysiological data streams.

MindTrace helps support structured, repeatable neurocognitive assessment across the surgical care journey and facilitates alignment of neurocognitive performance with neuronavigational and neurophysiological information. By bringing greater consistency and integration to assessment workflows, MindTrace supports more reliable documentation, longitudinal outcome tracking, and multi-site collaboration.

For Clinicians

Standardized Neurocognitive Assessment for Translational Neurosurgery

MindTrace helps support clinicians in translational neurosurgical programs by providing a structured framework for administering and documenting neurocognitive assessments across pre-operative, intra-operative, post-operative, inpatient, and telehealth settings.

The platform enables consistent capture of neurocognitive performance in relation to surgical and clinical events, supporting longitudinal review and cross-site reproducibility. Designed to integrate into established clinic workflows, awake craniotomy procedures, and epilepsy monitoring units, MindTrace augments clinical expertise while standardizing functional data collection.

All medical decision-making remains with the treating team. MindTrace supports clinicians in the thoughtful selection and administration of neuropsychological tasks based on the surgical context and functional anatomy under evaluation, reinforcing a structured and consistent approach to functional assessment.

For Researchers

Bridging Clinical Workflow and Translational Research

MindTrace is designed to bridge the gap between clinical neurocognitive assessment and structured research data collection. In many neurosurgical programs, research teams must build custom systems to capture synchronized behavioral, stimulation, and neurophysiological data within the operating room or epilepsy monitoring unit. MindTrace provides a structured framework for collecting multimodal data—including task selection and performance, response timing, audio and video recordings, and stimulation events—aligned with surgical and neurophysiological information within routine clinical workflows.

MindTrace is built on Open Science Tools’ PsychoPy timing engine, an open-source framework widely used in cognitive neuroscience research. This foundation reinforces precision, reproducibility, and alignment with established research methodologies. Designed for IRB-approved studies, MindTrace supports translational neuroscience without requiring research teams to build infrastructure from scratch, offering a scalable platform for implementing structured experimental paradigms in clinical environments.

For Hospitals and Health Systems

Building Scalable Infrastructure for Functional Neurosurgery

MindTrace helps support hospitals and health systems by standardizing neurocognitive assessment across the surgical care journey. The platform provides a structured framework for administering, documenting, and organizing functional data across inpatient, peri-operative, and telehealth settings, enabling consistency across clinicians and sites.

By aligning neurocognitive performance with surgical and neurophysiological information, MindTrace supports longitudinal documentation, quality review, and translational research across multidisciplinary clinical and research teams. Designed to integrate into existing clinical infrastructure, MindTrace strengthens programmatic consistency while preserving clinical autonomy at the point of care.
