More good news on Posit Science and brain exercise, with sounds competing with vision for the benefits of memory research.
Apparently Posit Science is the top runner and accepted as such by many people including institutions where the programs are being implemented for groups who attend regularly, with some startling and fast results recorded after just two weeks, annecdotal evidence from some suggests improvements after a few days.
The latest report comes from Santa.Cruz.Sentinel
and this says, amongst other things
Fitness classes abound, but in a Santa Cruz Adult School classroom the exercises forgo biceps for the brain.
Last year, the school began offering Brain Fitness classes based on interactive computer software created under the leadership of UC San Francisco professor emeritus Michael Merzenich.
Merzenich, a pioneer in brain plasticity research, heads a company called Posit Science. The company's computer program was developed by leading scientists from around the country, including researchers from Stanford, Yale and Harvard, and is based on decades of neurological research, the Web site states.
It's not about memory tricks, the company insists. Rather, the software reverses brain function declines by an average of 10 years by exercising and challenging the brain. It can make one think faster, focus better and remember more.
