The tier labels apply to the inference, not automatically to every factual anchor inside it. The interpretive frame comes from [[articles/Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer|Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer]] and [[articles/Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta|Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta]]. Collection route: [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]]. - **INF-0053 — Established.** Oxley conceived the Stentrode in 2007, filed in 2010, moved to the United States in 2015 and raised capital in 2016 — a nineteen-year arc from concept to a pivotal trial. That cadence is the realistic clock for any neural-interface modality, and it should anchor every timeline estimate in the corpus.
