Opening Session by Alvaro Fernandez, SharpBrains.
Description: Scientific, technological and demographic trends have converged to create a new $265m market in the US alone: serious games, software and online applications that can help people of all ages assess and train cognitive abilities. Alvaro Fernandez will provide a Bird’s Eye View of the science, market segments and trends, competitive landscape, and main challenges ahead, based on The State of the Brain Fitness Software Market 2009 report released in May, which included Research Executive Briefs prepared by 12 leading scientists and a survey of 2,000+ decision-makers and early adopters.
61% of respondents to the survey Strongly Agreed with the statement “Addressing cognitive and brain health should be a healthcare priority.” But, 65% Agreed/Strongly Agreed with “I don't really know what to expect from products making brain claims.” In this session, Alvaro will publicly unveil the new book The SharpBrains Guide to Brain Fitness: 18 Interviews with Scientists, Practical Advice, and Product Reviews, To Keep Your Brain Sharp, co-authored by neuropsychologist Dr. Elkhonon Goldberg and himself, aimed at helping consumers and professionals understand and navigate this growing field.
The document discusses brain fitness and ways to maintain a healthy brain. It covers topics like neuroplasticity, the different parts of the brain, and the four pillars of brain health: nutrition, physical exercise, stress management, and brain exercise. It emphasizes building brain reserve through lifelong mental and physical challenges to delay cognitive decline.

Presentation by Alvaro Fernandez at the New York Neuropsychology Group (NYNG) 2017 Annual Spring Conference.
Hundreds of companies around the globe–now including Elon Musk’s Neuralink and even Facebook–are researching and developing new ways to help brain owners be smarter, sharper, and healthier. What explains this flurry of activity, and where may it be headed? What are the opportunities and challenges for the Neuropsychologists of the Future? We will structure the conversation around five emerging and thought-provoking statements:
1. There are 7.5 billion human brains out there, and everyone needs help 2. Lifelong neuroplasticity means all those brains can “sculpt” themselves 3. Mobile, sensing, wearable technologies, coupled with artificial intelligence (AI), provide a new platform to harness that neuroplasticity for good 4. Entrepreneurship and investments are fueling accelerated growth 5. Professionals are stepping up to help educate consumers and patients.

Cognitive Fitness and the Mature Workforce: Opportunities and ChallengesSharpBrains
This document summarizes a presentation on cognitive fitness and the mature workforce. It discusses how lifestyle factors and training can help protect the ability to learn in older adults, though learning may be slower in completely new areas. It also notes that age alone is not the best predictor of cognitive performance, and that cognitive fitness is an emerging issue for human resources departments to address.
Brain fitness aims to improve and maintain cognitive abilities through cognitive training programs. These programs target normal aging adults looking to stay sharp as well as those with impairments or neurological damage. The brain fitness market is growing rapidly due to several trends, including positive scientific research on the benefits of cognitive training, baby boomers' fear of cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease, increased industry funding, and public policy supporting cognitive health initiatives. Engaging gaming approaches to cognitive training are becoming more popular and effective than dull methods.

How can Big Data help upgrade brain care?SharpBrains
Current standards of brain and mental care often rely on trials of insufficient scale, which not only limits our ability to diagnose, prevent, treat and personalize care but often leads to incorrect conclusions and undesirable results. What tools and data are becoming available via large-scale web-based and mobile applications, and how can researchers, innovators and practitioners connect with these initiatives?

Cognitive Fitness and the Mature Workforce: Opportunities and ChallengesSharpBrains
This document summarizes a presentation on cognitive fitness and the mature workforce. It discusses how lifestyle factors and training can help protect the ability to learn in older adults, though learning may be slower in completely new areas. It also notes that age alone is not the best predictor of cognitive performance, and that cognitive fitness is an emerging issue for human resources departments to address.
Brain fitness aims to improve and maintain cognitive abilities through cognitive training programs. These programs target normal aging adults looking to stay sharp as well as those with impairments or neurological damage. The brain fitness market is growing rapidly due to several trends, including positive scientific research on the benefits of cognitive training, baby boomers' fear of cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease, increased industry funding, and public policy supporting cognitive health initiatives. Engaging gaming approaches to cognitive training are becoming more popular and effective than dull methods.

This document discusses neurofeedback training (NFT) provided by Actualise-Cognifyx, which aims to optimize performance by developing understanding of the brain. NFT works by measuring and mapping brain function in real-time, then improving undesirable brain activity through positive reinforcement on an on-screen display to change psychological functioning and brain health. Case studies show changes in brain activity for an 8-year-old boy with autism, ADHD and ODD across NFT sessions. The document also summarizes global and Irish mental health trends and Cognifyx's capabilities in understanding cognition, emotion and behavior using technology, psychology experts and AI to detect, prevent and develop cognitive skills.
This document presents a model for detecting mental fatigue based on eye blinking behavior and responses to a questionnaire. The model uses a webcam to track eye blinking rate rather than specialized eye tracking technology. Participants complete a questionnaire measuring mental fatigue and cognitive state while their eye blinks per minute are recorded. A convolutional neural network is trained on the questionnaire responses and blinking data to classify fatigue levels. The researchers found their simple, low-cost model could accurately detect mental fatigue based on natural viewing conditions and questionnaire responses.

Update by Dr. Lew Lim, Founder & CEO of VielightSharpBrains
This document summarizes recent discoveries in using transcranial photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy. It discusses how light can penetrate the brain and elicit responses. Studies found PBM at specific frequencies can modify brain activity and improve inhibitory control. A clinical trial showed PBM increased connectivity in brain regions related to dementia. Another study found PBM improved symptoms for a case of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Overall, the evidence suggests PBM induces short-term brain inhibition and long-term restoration of brain baselines. PBM also enhanced learning rates in a military threat detection training program. Further research indicates certain light frequencies like gamma waves can induce altered meditative states. Personalized PBM protocols show promise.
