Working Memory Training

orking memory — a critical brain function — has gained broad acceptance as a primary indicator of academic, professional and personal performance. And after nearly a decade of research evidence and clinical success, the concept of training working memory to increase focus and cognitive reasoning is being heralded as a major development in neuroscience. How a scientific discovery is changing the way we understand and overcome the limits of the brain
