HOUSTON, TEXAS, April 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nexalin Technology, Inc. (the “Company” or “Nexalin”) (Nasdaq: NXL; NXLIW), today announced the appointment of former Acting General Counsel to the Department of Veterans Affairs, William (“Bill”) A. Hudson, Jr., to the Company’s Military & Government Advisory Board (“Advisory Board”).

Mr. Hudson served as the Acting General Counsel to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from November 10, 2019, to January 20, 2021. As the Chief Legal Officer of the Department and Legal Advisor to the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, he oversaw and coordinated the work of the Office of the General Counsel (OGC) Central Office Law Groups, OGC’s District Chief Counsel Offices, and OGC’s National Practice Groups, which provide legal services in areas encompassing all of VA’s Veterans’ programs, personnel, torts, and general law subject matters. Prior to joining VA, Mr. Hudson served the Department of Defense (DoD) as Senior Counsel and Director, Congressional Investigations, Office of General Counsel. He previously served twice at DoD in the Office of General Counsel as Acting Deputy General Counsel (Legislation). Mr. Hudson is a recipient of the Department of Veterans Affairs Exceptional Service Award and a five-time recipient of the Secretary of Defense’s Award for Exceptional Civilian Service.

Mr. Hudson retired from the United States Army in 2010 as a Colonel with over 27 years of active service. He has a Master of Science in National Security Strategy from the National War College; a Master of Laws from the Judge Advocate General’s Legal Center and School; a Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law; and a Bachelor of Arts from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. He is also a graduate from the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College.

Mark White, CEO of Nexalin Technology stated, “We are honored to welcome Col. Bill Hudson to the Military & Government Advisory Board. Having held senior roles within the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense, Bill brings spectacular credentials and experience in navigating these complex agencies. He also has extensive experience in forming public-private partnerships, as well as deep relationships at all levels of government, which should be invaluable as we pursue collaborations with various government agencies. We look forward to leveraging his unique skill set to bring our new and drug-free therapy to active military personnel, veterans and others suffering from the devastating effects of PTSD, TBI (traumatic brain injury), anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other targeted indications.”

Mr. Hudson stated, “I am honored to support Nexalin in its mission to provide effective, drug-free treatment alternatives to patients with various mental health conditions that are often debilitating. I particularly look forward to helping advance the commercialization of the technology in order to improve healthcare outcomes for America’s veterans who have honorably served our nation and deserve the best treatments available. Given the growing body of clinical evidence supporting the efficacy and potential of Nexalin's new advanced 15 mA waveform, I truly believe this technology holds enormous promise and I look forward to leveraging my expertise as well as my network to bring new hope to these patients.”
