Press Release Body: Dr. Vijendra K. Singh recently joined Brain State Technologies
as the Director of Research. Dr. Singh has over twenty years experience in
neurobiology and immunology research, beginning at the BC Children's Hospital in
Vancouver, British Columbia, where he focused on neurochemistry and began delving
into the immunology of the nervous system. After moving to the United States, Singh
continued researching central nervous system disorders at the University of
Michigan, focusing specifically on autism, autoimmunity in autism, and Alzheimer's
disease. His research has led him firmly to the conviction that up to eighty percent
of the cases of autism are caused by an abnormal immune reaction, commonly known as
autoimmunity, rather than simply genetics.

Singh is also one of many scientists to propound the notion that diet may impact
cognitive function, and to recommend dietary interventions to mitigate psychiatric
disorders. Only in recent years has the immune system been recognized to have
profound affects on all other body systems, thanks to pioneers including Singh.

Singh has authored over one hundred scientific publications, and has made
presentations before a congressional oversight committee and numerous conferences.

"We are thrilled to have Dr. Singh here to head up our non-profit research
division," said Lee Gerdes, President and CEO of Brain State Technologies.
