You have chosen a fascinating and challenging path to pursue. The interface between technology and people is where all the really tough but productive stuff can happen. I'd like to introduce you to my company. It's our mission to track new findings about the science of the brain and translate them into everyday language. We also publish brain training software that is proven through independent research and affordable for all. To your point about cognitive training, I think that in recent months the science has become definitive in supporting the theory that such training can indeed produce measurable cognitive change. In particular, Susanne Jaeggi and Martin Buschkuehl's study on Improving Fluid Intelligence by Training Working Memory (PNAS April 2008) recorded increases in mental agility (fluid intelligence) of more than 40% after 19 days of focused brain training. We are now using this very training method in <a href="http://mindsparkebrainfitnesspro.com" title="train prep iq sat act gre gmat brain exercises" rel="nofollow">Mind Sparke Brain Fitness <i>Pro</i></a>. The objective and subjective reports from customers are exciting. We've already had people increase their IQ score by more than 15%, for instance.
