Neuroplasticity and Cognitive Exercise
TweetOur new understanding of neuroplasticity implies that cognitive exercise not only improves cognitive skills, the “software” on which the brain runs, but that it actually changes the brain itself, the neural “hardware.” Neuroimaging studies have shown that the brain regions engaged in vigorous mental activities can actually grow in size! The effects of neuroplasticity tend […]
Neuroplasticity and The Brain
TweetThe discovery of neuroplasticity is among the most important advances in neuroscience. It refers to the brain’s ability to change in response to mental activity. Neuroplasticity can take many forms—from the emergence of new connections between neurons called synapses, to increased blood supply to the brain, to the emergence of new neurons themselves. Cognitive training […]
Brain Exercise Improves Cognitive Skills
TweetResearch shows that scientifically designed cognitive exercises can improve human cognition. This approach has been used to help patients recover from debilitating neurological illness such as traumatic brain injury or stroke for decades, and it remains the mainstay of clinical practice. By engaging in systematic cognitive exercise, a person develops new cognitive skills. But if […]
How We Do It
TweetThe human mind is dynamic and so is the organ behind it – the human brain. Just as the muscles respond to physical exercise, the human brain responds to mental activities. Just as specific muscle groups benefit from carefully designed physical workouts, so too do different parts of the brain benefit from cognitive exercises designed […]
