The Future of Brain Health and EnhancementSharpBrains
Keynote by Alvaro Fernandez at BrainFutures 2017. Washington, DC. September 6th, 2017.
Hundreds of science labs and companies around the globe 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? Which companies, technologies and solutions are gaining the most traction so far, and what are some of the best practices for appropriate use?
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.

This document summarizes a survey of brain-based priorities across different geographies and age groups. It was chaired by Dr. Olivier Oullier and included presentations on growth mindset by Eduardo Briceño and how it can affect performance, health, and other outcomes. Graeme Moffat then discussed the Muse headband and how it can help with meditation. Finally, Tara Thiagarajan presented on a study analyzing brain activity data collected across India to understand differences based on factors like income, education, and technology usage.

It describes 10 emerging brain technologies including wearables to monitor and enhance focus, meditation, and self-regulation. It also discusses electrical and magnetic brain stimulation, virtual reality treatments, brain-computer interfaces, and neuromonitoring technologies. Finally, it discusses how big data and machine learning can enhance diagnostics and treatments for various brain conditions like seizures, ALS, and more. Overall, the technologies described aim to transform brain health by enhancing functions like memory, learning, and skills training through personalized cognitive simulations and interfaces.

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.

This document discusses completing a 70.3 mile triathlon, which includes a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike ride, and 13.1 mile run. It talks about overcoming self-doubt and pain through perseverance. It provides an example of someone who lost 60 pounds and gained confidence through starting with a 5k run and eventually competing in triathlons, including an Ironman 70.3 championship. The key message is that one needs to take chances, accept challenges, and push through hurdles to achieve goals.

Emerging Research and Technology for Life Hacking/ Brain TrainingSharpBrains
ETech 2009 session: Life hacking. Brain training. They are one and the same. The brain’s frontal lobes enable our goal-oriented behavior, supporting “executive functions,” such as decision-making, attention, emotional self-regulation, goal-setting, and working memory. These functions can be enhanced with targeted practice – such as life hacking. This session will provide an overview of the cognitive neuroscience underpinning life hacking, and review the state-of-the-art of non-invasive tools for brain training: neurofeedback, biofeedback, software applications, cognitive simulations, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, and plain-old meditation.
The document summarizes the development of a dashboard called TriaTriumph to help triathletes quantify and track their training data. Researchers conducted surveys of triathletes to understand their needs. Based on the results, they created paper and digital prototypes of the dashboard. Usability testing improved the design. A trial period with 10 triathletes found the dashboard was helpful for estimating fitness progress. However, user tracking revealed low usage. Future work includes integrating the dashboard with smartwatch and fitness device data uploads.
1) Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a form of pulmonary hypertension that results from chronic obstruction of the pulmonary arteries by thromboembolic material.
2) CTEPH can be treated through pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) surgery to remove the obstructive material, which provides long-term benefits. For inoperable cases or persistent PH after PEA, medical therapies targeting the prostacyclin, endothelin, and nitric oxide pathways may provide clinical improvements.
3) The document reviews the definition, epidemiology, risk factors, diagnosis, management options including PEA surgery outcomes, and evidence for medical therapies of CTEPH.

Available online from anywhere with an Internet connection, this virtual lecture provided participants with the must-know foundation to understand the value and the limitations of emerging brain science and related technologies, empowering them to navigate the growing stream of news articles, research reports and marketing claims.
1) The single most important lesson from 83,000 brain scans is that you can literally change people's brains through treatment, which changes their lives.
2) Conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, and addiction are not single or simple disorders but have multiple types that require tailored treatment to the individual brain.
3) Undiagnosed brain injuries are a major cause of issues like homelessness, drug abuse, depression, panic attacks, ADHD, and suicide. Evaluating and treating troubled brains could help rehabilitate people and save society money.

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.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
