Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.  I’m Fred Fishkin.   There is some serious science behind BrainHQ from Posit Science. The app, which I’ve been spending quite a bit of time with is aimed at helping users improve cognitive function.  The app has lots of challenges…and while you can improve your scores…they are designed for you not to fully succeed it seems.    CEO Dr. Henry Mahncke…
“Doing the exercises is a little bit like doing a certain kind of video game, one might say.  One of the key exercises, actually invented a number of years ago, and what it’s designed to do is improve the speed of your divided attention.”
The first levels of some exercises are available for free for as long as you would like to use them.  For full access…the price is 14 dollars a month or 96 dollars a year.  It is also incorporated into the new Reboot Your Age app.
