Products - Posit Science Brain Fitness Program

The Institute for Healthy Aging at Keiro has partnered with Posit Science to offer our residents and community members a unique opportunity – to participate in a training program designed to improve memory, communication and thinking skills in mature adults. We would like to invite you to join this program.

What Is the Program?
This computer-based training program was designed by some of the world’s leading scientists to improve memory, focus and other cognitive abilities in adults.

  • The program includes a series of scientifically-based, fun and engaging exercises that you do on a computer. These programs exercise your brain and are designed to speed up brain processing and improve brain function.

  • The exercises are done for an hour a day for up to eight weeks. Why so many weeks? As with physical exercise, it is important to exercise the brain extensively in specific ways in order to see benefits. The program is self-paced and adjusts to each individual’s abilities and needs.

  • The program is easy to use. You do not need to have any experience using a computer.

  • Enrollment in the program is open to the public.

Available for Home Use
You may also purchase the Posit Science Brain Fitness computer program through the Institute at a 10% discount, for use in the privacy of your home. Please call (323) 326-7602 for information.

About Posit Science
The Brain Fitness Program was developed by a team of more than 50 scientists from leading universities around the world. This team is led by Dr. Michael Merzenich, who holds an endowed research chair at the University of California at San Francisco and has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences. Posit Science partnered with Humana to offer its Medicare members this brain fitness program.

“I keep thinking of all the people who can benefit from this breakthrough. The science is solid, and studies show the program works. The fact that we can do something to retain and enhance our powers of concentration, understanding and memory is very exciting to me both professionally and personally.”

– Horace B. Deets, former executive director of AARP
  “At every point in life, the brain’s natural plasticity gives us the ability to improve how our brains function. It’s only a matter of figuring out how to harness that remarkable capability.”

– Dr. Michael Merzenich, Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, University of California at San Francisco
