the brain builders lab is a ccsa-led initiative on adverse childhood experiences (aces) and their impact on brain development. the purpose is to move the knowledge from the brain story into policy and practice. the kick-off event took place march 4–5, 2019, in ottawa. it brought together professionals from across the country to discuss ways to integrate brain story science into policy, practice and public discussion.

background the ageing population has increased the prevalence of disabling and high-cost diseases, such as dementia and mild cognitive impairment (mci). the latter can be considered a prodromal phase of some dementias and a critical stage for interventions to postpone the impairment of functionality. working memory (wm) is a pivotal cognitive function, representing the fundamental element of executive functions. this project proposes an intervention protocol to enhance wm in these users, combining cognitive training with transcranial electrical stimulation of alternating current (tacs). this technique has been suggested to enhance the neuronal plasticity needed for cognitive processes involving oscillatory patterns. wm stands to benefit significantly from this approach, given its well-defined electrophysiological oscillations. therefore, tacs could potentially boost wm in patients with neurodegenerative diseases. methods this study is a phase iib randomised, double-blind clinical trial with a 3-month follow-up period. the study participants will be 62 participants diagnosed with mci, aged over 60, from valparaíso, chile. participants will receive an intervention combining twelve cognitive training sessions with tacs. participants will receive either tacs or placebo stimulation in eight out of twelve training sessions. sessions will occur twice weekly over 6 weeks. the primary outcomes will be electroencephalographic measurements through the prefrontal theta oscillatory activity, while the secondary effects will be cognitive assessments of wm. the participants will be evaluated before, immediately after, and 3 months after the end of the intervention. discussion the outcomes of this trial will add empirical evidence about the benefits and feasibility of an intervention that combines cognitive training with non-invasive brain stimulation. the objective is to contribute tools for optimal cognitive treatment in patients with mci. to enhance wm capacity, postpone the impairment of functionality, and obtain a better quality of life. trial registration clinicaltrials.gov nct05291208. registered on 28 february 2022. isrctn87597719 retrospectively registered on 15 september 2023.

neurofeedback is a brain-training technique that can be used in a variety of contexts such as motor rehabilitation or psychiatry. participants are to self- regulate their brain activity by performing a mental task they can visualize on a screen. however, sometimes people disengage. either they find the exercise too hard or too easy. or they just let their mind wander away, causing the training to fail. led by researcher claire cury at inria — the french institute for digital science— eyeskin-nf is an exploratory action attempting to leverage eye tracking and skin conductance in order to monitor the participant’s focus or lack thereof in real time to then automatically adjust the task’s difficulty level accordingly.
