Description
An app for users to improve their brain health with clear steps to holistic brain wellness, driven by cognitive neuroscience.
Context
As a part of the Center for BrainHealth, the BrainHealth Project® introduces a multidimensional understanding of brain health and explores our lifelong ability to impact the brain's fitness, no matter the starting point.
Three decades of science have shown that users can train their brains to work better, faster, and last longer. Starting with the BrainHealth® Index (BHI), users get their personalized training plan, and explore their brain’s upward potential. It’s all online, and can be accessed from anywhere.

THE
PROJECT
BRAINHEALTH
The Problem
How might we develop the world’s first quantifiable, science-based measure of the brain’s health and performance?
Ideation
Challenges
Scaling for Growth
Keeping existing participants engaged
Providing users with quantifiable metrics
Simplifying complex research into easily digestible content
In 2019, the Center for BrainHealth engaged Dialexa ↗ as a partner to create a scalable, engaging, and secure digital platform. The platform created an engaging experience with science-backed brain training exercises and new strategies to allow participants to build brain health on their own time, from anywhere in the world.
Key Features
The platform evolved to become a user-friendly portal – providing a personalized user journey, sending and receiving information, tracking progress and deploying various metrics that help track brain health and keep participants deeply engaged.
Since the main focus of the project is to explore the brain’s limitless potential, the cognitive neuroscience research being conducted will ultimately provide a better understanding of how to tap into the brain’s ability to adapt and improve across a lifetime.
With the data collected, the team developed and tested science-based brain training tactics and techniques including the world’s first-ever, holistic measure of the brain’s health and performance: The BrainHealth Index.

The BrainHealth Index provides a snapshot of the brain's health and performance, allowing users to track change and improvement over time. An initial assessment establishes a baseline for each user's cognitive function and personalized data informs the selection of brain training activities.

The BrainHealth Project goes beyond just brain training exercises by offering a Daily Brain Wellness Plan. This plan personalizes a set of daily activities that promote overall brain health, incorporating elements of brain healthy habits and curated resources.
Brain Health Training
The platform offers a diverse range of brain training activities that target different cognitive domains, such as memory, focus, and problem-solving. The platform uses an adaptive algorithm to adjust the difficulty of brain training activities based on user performance. This ensures a consistent challenge and maximizes the effectiveness of the training.
Habits
Habits are based on user preferences and cognitive needs. This could include activities like learning a new skill, single-tasking, or engaging in social activities, all of which can stimulate the brain and promote cognitive flexibility.
Gamification
The platform incorporates several key features of gamification to motivate users and keep them engaged. Key of which are: badges, My Journey, and a coin reward system.

Everything look good?
Virtual coaching sessions with brain health clinicians provide users with personalized guidance and support on their brain fitness journey.
Final Deliverable
The BrainHealth Project is the first-ever custom brain health metric and training platform powered by data and machine learning that transforms the pursuit of better brain health and performance.
The new digital platform allowed the formerly in-person research process to grow and expand, even through COVID, well beyond simply the Dallas / Fort Worth region to anywhere on Earth.
