Listen "Can You Really Increase Your Brain Power with Games"
Episode Synopsis
Can you really use games to increase your brain power? Every day we are bombarded with messages that suggest we can. AARP offers their members (all seniors) a discount on the Posit Science "brain fitness" program. Lumosity ads exhort us to "challenge your brain with scientifically designed training. According to their website, the program is designed by neuroscientists. A quick trip to Amazon yields dozens of books all claiming to help you increase your brain power.
To explore what is fact and what is wishful thinking, Pat Salber, MD (@docweighsin) talks to Dov Michaeli, MD, PhD (@dovmichaeli) to get his perspective on increasing brain power. Can it be done? Do games work? If so any specific types of games? If not, what else can we do to maintain or regain lost functioning? This should be a fascinating discussion.
