DES MOINES, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A multi-disciplinary group of scientists and physicians in Des Moines, Iowa, announced highly encouraging results from a six-month pilot study, funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Regular, consistent workouts with Happy Neuron games were a key component of the study. The research project included ten participants diagnosed with memory problems as a probable symptom of early Alzheimer’s Disease. Participants who complied with the protocols of the study showed significant improvement in cognitive skills, measured by pre- and post-PET scans and neuropsychological examinations. One participant showed considerable “recovery” of brain activity, as measured by PET scans, clinical examinations, and the reports of the participant and his family.
