@lifehacker My first career (decades ago) was as a journalist. I feel compelled to offer a correction. BrainHQ is backed by 300+ peer-reviewed studies, and has long shown generalization (since 2009) to standard measures of cognition and daily life. https://t.co/pxhAZpZHEE

@lydiadepillis Great article this morning on non-competes in local
broadcasting. Worth noting they’ve been illegal across all occupations in CA for 160 years and the state’s economy has flourished (15% of US GDP from 12% of US population).

Interest in studying brain-training games has grown since a 2020 report published in the journal Lancet said that as many as 40% of dementia cases could theoretically be prevented or delayed with lifestyle changes. https://t.co/DwjKtIX5RI

These games aren’t what people typically think of as videogames or puzzles.

Specialized videogames promise a workout for your brain. Scientists are studying whether they can ward off dementia. https://t.co/vhYz6a1C5d

[Betsy Morris @BetsyMorris2]

Can specially-designed videogames prevent dementia? It looks like it but the jury is still out. https://t.co/EzwMszzBty via @WSJ

[Jeff Zimman @jeff_zimman]

Interesting WSJ piece on a pivot in dementia research to focus more on brain training.

Interesting review article on non-pharmacological treatments of Multiple Sclerosis. Slowing of speed of cognitive processing is common in MS, with many ramifications.
