Deepinder Goyal Wears ‘Temple’ Prototype on Podcast to Track Brain Blood Flow

The experimental patch has no published validation or regulatory clearance yet.

Overview

  • The Zomato founder appeared on Raj Shamani’s podcast with a small silver sensor beside his right temple, identified as a research device called Temple.
  • Goyal describes Temple as an experimental, daily‑wear patch intended to monitor real‑time cerebral blood flow and surface markers related to cognition, stress, sleep and fatigue.
  • He links the device to his Gravity Ageing Hypothesis and longevity work under Continue Research, and Mint reports he has pledged $25 million of personal funds to the effort.
  • Reporting notes that comparable monitoring methods in academia, such as fNIRS and diffuse correlation techniques, are largely research‑stage rather than proven consumer or clinical tools.
  • Experts caution there is no evidence the device reverses ageing, with next steps expected to include peer‑reviewed validation, independent trials, and any future regulatory filings; no launch details have been announced.
