Mechanism One: Mitochondrial Energy Restart — Charging the Brain at the Cellular Level
Stage One: Complete “Photon Capture” within 1 second (rapid energy absorption)
Goal: Find the cellular target that can “catch” light: Cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) on the inner membrane of mitochondria (energy factory), equivalent to the factory's “light receptor...

How Does Light Change the Brain? The Scientific Principles of Near-Infrared Brain Light Regulation.
Near-infrared light (especially the 810 nm wavelength) acts like a special light that “recharges and repairs” the brain. By activating the mitochondria—the cell’s “energy factories”, it triggers a cascade of reactions from molecules to neural networks. Ultimately, it protects neurons, enhances memory, and improves brain function, all in a non-invasive and safe way...
On March 5, 2026, Cognito Therapeutics announced the completion of a $105 million Series C financing round. The round was led by Morningside Ventures, IAG Capital Partners, and Starbloom Capital, with participation from Apollo Health Ventures, New Vintage, Benvolio Group, and other institutions...
