NOBIC is excited to have Tehnical.ly as a media partner for BioChallenge 2026. With the recent opening of applications, they featured an article on their website and newsletters highlighting NOBIC + BioChallenge.
Neurological conditions are the leading cause of disability worldwide. Louisiana faces a disproportionate burden, with some of the nation’s highest rates of stroke, Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative conditions. BioChallenge was created to accelerate the development of technologies and therapies that address these challenges and advance equity and innovation in brain health.
Beyond the $100,000 in non-dilutive funding, prizes include complimentary lab space at NOBIC, dedicated pilot implementation and grant-writing support. Finalists will also receive travel funding to compete in person in New Orleans.
