Stony Brook University researcher Sima Mofakham develops SeeMe, an AI tool that detects subtle facial movements to spot consciousness in brain-injured patients up to four days earlier than doctors. Non-invasive and low-cost, it could be scaled for widespread hospital use and paired with therapies to improve recovery. The program provides an extra layer of insight to guide treatment and support families without replacing clinical judgment.
