🌟 We’re excited to share the publication of an important study in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, in collaboration with members from the Cognitive Function Development Institute, NeuroCatch and Centre for Neurology Studies!

📊 The research focused on participants undergoing the Cognitive Function Development Therapy (CFDT) program, which aims to strengthen key cognitive domains. Along with the Cognitive Function Development Institute’s markers of cognition, NeuroCatch’s rapid and objective neurophysiological measurements were leveraged to observe marked improvements in attention and overall cognitive function. This work is an important initial step for CFDI to work towards a standardized level of evidence-based mental and cognitive healthcare.
