NeuroCatch - Making Cognition Measurable with Derek Norsworthy, CEO

In this episode of the Ageless Future Podcast, host Cade Archibald sits down with Derek Norsworthy, CEO of NeuroCatch, to explore a breakthrough approach to cognitive assessment using objective “brain vital signs.” Derek shares how NeuroCatch evolved from decades of neuroscience research into a point-of-care tool designed to measure cognitive function with lab-level sensitivity—helping clinicians move beyond subjective questionnaires and “you seem fine” evaluations. Together, they discuss how NeuroCatch is used to establish baseline brain performance, track improvements from longevity and brain-optimization protocols (including peptides, stem cells, HBOT, red light, and other interventions), and detect subclinical cognitive changes that may not appear on MRI/CT or standard assessments. Derek also recounts his personal health journey from burnout and hormone disruption to functional medicine recovery, reinforcing the episode’s theme: better outcomes happen when innovative technology and integrative care meet in the middle.

Derek Norsworthy: I began my career as a clinical professional and evolved into a recognized leader in healthcare technology, specializing in the integration of electronic health record systems and innovation across large U.S. health systems. Through roles as a strategic advisor, business consultant, and healthcare entrepreneur, I’ve guided organizations in adopting advanced technologies to improve clinical workflows, operations, and patient outcomes. Now serving as CEO of HealthtechConnex, I bring my clinical experience and passion for innovation full circle to help bring cutting-edge health technologies to market. Beyond healthcare, I’m a husband, father, endurance athlete, leadership coach, and technology entrepreneur, driven by a mission to inspire others with the tools, mindset, and confidence to live life fully.
