Ask HN: Where to find a rare expert co-founder?
So I started working on a project me as a technical founder on my idea and my co-founder on his expertise field which is neuroscience/neuroengineering.
The project itself is very futuristic and interesting.
After my partner left the project due to academia commitments I am struggling to find this expertise. It doesn't come into my social circles or my colleagues from work (I am a developer).
Putting an ad on a university feels very wrong to start a business relationship.
I would at some point ideally apply to YC or other tech funds after critical research has been done.
Any ideas to point me?

- jwbwater 8y agoYou should post to the comp-neuro mailing list. I used it to find a postdoc in computational neuroscience. That should give you access to a lot of neuroengineering types. http://www.tnb.ua.ac.be/mailman/listinfo/comp-neuro http://www.tnb.ua.ac.be/mailman/listinfo/comp-neuro
