During this pandemic, the world has been at a standstill, but we’ve seen a surge in brain training with BrainHQ. Whether it’s because people are experiencing a pause in life that is allowing them to reflect on the importance of their health or because people are simply finding more time for training, we do hope that this awareness will grow into a healthy practice that continues throughout people’s lives. Living with dementia or other neurological conditions can really diminish one’s quality of life!
For those of you who still don’t have full access to BrainHQ, we’re doing our part by offering you $35 ($30 US) to spend towards a subscription for yourself or towards a meaningful gift to give to someone you care about.
With 2020 coming to a close, I can’t express enough our gratitude for your help with raising public and organizational awareness about brain health and fitness. We look forward to another fruitful year working with you.
We wish you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season!
Kind regards, Frieda Fanni

Uncovering a hidden network
Findings from an intriguing study are adding to our growing understanding of Alzheimer’s disease. Scripps Research scientists have discovered a previously unknown process that contributes to synapse loss—the main reason for memory loss and cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s. One of the most fascinating findings of this study teaches scientists that they have to be on the lookout for pathways and relationships in our biochemistry that previously went unnoticed.

Baby’s breath
There is always magic in the air when a baby is born, and much of what makes certain elements happen during and after birth remains shrouded in mystery. One of these unexplained phenomena is a baby's first breath – the magical moment a baby's oxygen switches from being delivered through the mother and her placenta to being taken over by the baby's brain and lungs. Scientists from the University of Virginia and the University of Alberta are analyzing this crucial moment in a child's first moments of life, to see if they can find important insights into sudden infant death syndrome.
