Sharp Brains: Brain Fitness and Cognitive Health News

Neuroplasticity, Brain Fitness and Cognitive Health News

What do Medicine, HR, Green living, Videogames, and Genes have in common…

…that understanding how our brains and minds work may con­tribute to all of them.

Here you have some of the best blog car­ni­vals (col­lec­tions of blog posts on spe­cific top­ics) we have con­tributed to this week:

  • Grand Rounds: “brain exer­cise” is as impor­tant as nutri­tion, phys­i­cal exer­cise and stress management.
  • Green Liv­ing: let’s start the con­ver­sa­tion about “sus­tain­able brains”.
  • Human Resources: isn’t it obvi­ous, yet often neglected, that “human cap­i­tal” rests on brain devel­op­ment and learn­ing how to learn?.
  • Brain Fit­ness Car­ni­val: fully devoted to our topic.
  • Video Game Blog­gers: “games” can be good vehi­cles for cog­ni­tive and emo­tional train­ing, if prop­erly devel­oped and used.
  • Gene Genie: our genes are not destiny.

You can also check the Med­i­cine 2.0 car­ni­val that we hosted.
