Hey folks, I'm looking for examples of neuroscience-driven consumer tech (brain training apps, use-at-home devices, other) for a course I'm teaching. Can you suggest recent examples? *You don't have to endorse them* (that's part of what the students will think about) Please RT for visibility

For those keeping track, we are now at 2 weeks with no new R01s funded. Still only 18 new ("01") grants are fellowships/Ks, a few admin supplements, one R35, and one R03. Same 2-week period in 2024: 143 new grants were awarded and 41 R01s. Devastating.
