Teaching an old brain new tricks: optimising cognitive training through neuroplasticity [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2025 ]

Research Grant

Brief description People with early dementia have the most to gain from brain training programs aimed at delaying deterioration. Yet, its power is under-realised, with improvements not generalising to everyday living. This research program will harness the power of neuroplasticity to optimise brain training so that the effects transfer to everyday life. The knowledge gained will transform the way that we design and deliver brain training programs and revolutionise our understanding of why and how people respond.
