Update: Neuroscience 2.0 — Taking the brain lab to the people

July 29, 2015 by SharpBrains

virtualdream_neurofeedback

.

Time for Sharp­Brains’ July e‑newsletter, wrap­ping up this month’s key brain-relat­ed news and insights.

First of all, a reminder to Save the Date for 2015 Sharp­Brains Vir­tu­al Sum­mit (Novem­ber 17–19th), where lead­ing experts will dis­cuss Mon­i­tor­ing & Enhanc­ing Brain Health in the Per­va­sive Neu­rotech­nol­o­gy Era (to reg­is­ter with 10% dis­count, use this code: sharp2015).

New tools:

  • Neu­ro­science 2.0: Tak­ing the lab to the peo­ple by gath­er­ing col­lec­tive EEG brain data
  • Trans­lat­ing brain activ­i­ty sig­nals into dri­ving and oth­er com­put­er-assist­ed interactions
  • Train­ing law-enforce­ment “itchy brains” can reduce shoot­ing-relat­ed civil­ian casualties
  • Brain train­ing game helps resist unhealthy snack foods
  • Per­va­sive Neu­rotech­nol­o­gy: The Dig­i­tal Rev­o­lu­tion Meets the Human Brain (slid­edeck)

New research:

  • Sur­vey high­lights need to improve brain health literacy
  • High tele­vi­sion view­ing and low phys­i­cal activ­i­ty can sig­nif­i­cant­ly wors­en long-term cog­ni­tive function
  • Cog­ni­tive Behav­ioral Ther­a­py helps treat depression–especially among women–but ben­e­fits are declin­ing steadily
  • Neu­roimag­ing stud­ies: In soc­cer, over one thou­sand “head­ers” per year can lead to brain injury and cog­ni­tive impairment
  • Youth unem­ploy­ment can lead to long-term cog­ni­tive and emo­tion­al scars

More on Pervasive Neurotechnologies:

  • IBM ranked #14 Hold­er of Per­va­sive Neu­rotech IP
  • McLean Hos­pi­tal Corp: #16 Hold­er of Per­va­sive Neu­rotech IP
  • Philips ranked #18 Hold­er of Per­va­sive Neu­rotech IP
  • Sed­line (a Masi­mo com­pa­ny) ranked #20 Hold­er of Per­va­sive Neu­rotech IP
  • Com­pumedics ranked #22 Hold­er of Per­va­sive Neu­rotech IP

Final­ly, we are proud to wel­come “Fit­ness mózgu” — The Sharp­Brains Guide to Brain Fit­ness, now in Polish!

Have a great month of August
