I have no idea about Neurology, but you should definitely look in to the engineers of some level. Ultimately, you're going to need to build a better unit for the brain, and syncing external devices to help the human brain function better is probably the best way to go.
Still, not only are you going to have a hard time getting a device that'll perform the necessary operations to manage/help the brain (Quantum Computing should pave the way for this), but the most waning aspect of technological progress is our ability (or in this case inability) to get rid of heat from the operating devices. We need better, safer, cheaper ways to dissipate heat so we can run stuff faster, and we're hitting a wall right now.
Study some sort of engineering with a minor in psychology, so when technology eventually catches up to you, you'll be able to mimic/undertake the human psyche and build for it.
