Update: Got Brain? Investing in Our Most Precious Asset in 2013

December 28, 2012 by SharpBrains

Time for Sharp­Brains’ Decem­ber 2012 eNewslet­ter, fea­tur­ing the for­ward-look­ing arti­cle Got Brain? Invest­ing in Our Most Pre­cious Asset in 2013: “Open a week­end New York Times or Wall Street Jour­nal and you’ll find a whole sec­tion with detailed infor­ma­tion and advice for indi­vid­u­als look­ing to invest wise­ly. What you will not find, how­ever, is com­pa­ra­ble infor­ma­tion and advice for invest­ing in your most impor­tant asset of all: your brain. Pre­cisely because it (usu­ally) does its job so smooth­ly and effec­tively, it’s all too easy to for­get that your brain is there and that it needs to be invest­ed in just as with any­thing else we val­ue and want to con­tinue reap­ing ben­e­fits from. And with more than 2 bil­lion peo­ple world­wide cur­rently suf­fer­ing from brain-based health and pro­duc­tiv­ity chal­lenges with a result­ing glob­al eco­nomic bur­den of more than $2 tril­lion, it’s also an issue of some impor­tance.” Click to keep read­ing.

Brain health Q&A with Dr. San­dra Chap­man (Jan­u­ary 4th, 2013): We are pleased to announce that Dr. San­dra Chap­man, Direc­tor of the Cen­ter for Brain­Health at The Uni­ver­sity of Texas at Dal­las and one of the most insight­ful speak­ers at the 2012 Sharp­Brains Vir­tual Sum­mit, will be answer­ing ques­tions from Sharp­Brains read­ers on Jan­u­ary 4th, 2013.

Webi­nar on The State of the Dig­i­tal Brain Health Mar­ket (Jan­u­ary 17th, 2013): We will dis­cuss the main mar­ket find­ings and inno­va­tion oppor­tu­ni­ties iden­ti­fied in Sharp­Brains’ new mar­ket report with pro­fes­sion­als who order the mar­ket report before Jan­u­ary 17th, 2013. The list cur­rently includes inno­va­tors at the Alzheimer’s Asso­ci­a­tion, Anthro­Tronix, Arrow­smith Pro­gram, BCM Tech­nolo­gies, Brain Resource, Brain State Tech­nolo­gies, Cogmed, Cog­nic­iti, Dig­i­tal Arte­facts, Hitachi, Jef­fer­son Part­ners, Lumos Labs, NeoCogi­ta, and Shire, among others.

Max­i­miz­ing brain fit­ness and men­tal well-being improves both pub­lic health and indi­vid­ual qual­i­ty of life: We’re hav­ing a good con­ver­sa­tion among Sharp­Brains Sum­mit par­tic­i­pants, prompt­ed by the blog post Life­long brain well­ness and performance–not med­ical disease–drives grow­ing demand for dig­i­tal brain health solu­tions.

That’s all until next year. Wish­ing you a very hap­py and pro­duc­tive 2013!
