Nolan was a scientific visionary and a truly empathetic individual whose profound commitment to addressing the crisis in brain health defined his career. He was a recognized leader in research, innovation, and the crucial movement to destigmatize brain health conditions. His groundbreaking work at Stanford University led to the development of the SAINT Neuromodulation Platform, which became the foundation of Magnus Medical’s technology and mission. His vision - that healing from depression should be faster, more precise, and accessible - continues to guide everything we do.

Nolan was not only a brilliant scientist but a kind, humble, and generous human being. His compassion and belief in the possibility of recovery inspired everyone around him. His legacy lives on in our work, our mission and in every life touched by SAINT therapy. We remain committed - now more than ever - to Nolan’s vision to help as many people with depression as possible.
