The BrainHealth Project is a ten-year longitudinal study focused on identifying determinants of brain health and performance Participants will have the opportunity to complete semi-annual twice a year online assessments to track their performance over time In between semi-annual assessments participants will have access to online trainings and ongoing supplemental content regarding ways to optimize brain health and performance Online one-on-one coaching sessions will be offered to participants to answer questions and provide support in applying the information to their daily lives A small portion of participants will be invited to participate in the brain imaging portion of this study
The main objectives are i to characterize lifestyle cognitive and behavioral markers related to an individuals cognitive function from adolescent to elderly ages ii to assess the neuralbiological determinants predictive of maintenance of brain health and iii to evaluate the impact of available cognitive and lifestyle interventions on improving and maintaining brain health and performance

Detailed Description:
Description of Study For individuals who qualify to participate they will be asked to complete online assessments and questionnaires twice a year In between those time points participants will participate in online trainings exercises and education regarding ways to optimize brain health as well as overall health
The assessments and trainings included in this protocol consist of the following
Assessments
BrainHealth Index 90 min - An online battery of cognitive measures and questionnaires The Clarity section looks at complex thinking capacities such as reasoning flexibility and strategy In this section you will be asked to complete different cognitive tasks The questionnaires measure other aspects of life that relate to brain health such as emotional well-being quality of life happiness social support systems and sleep In this section you will rate these aspects of your own life Participants will also complete a 5 minute assessment with BrainHQ to measure processing speed
The small group of participants who are invited to complete the brain imaging portion of the study will undergo annual brain imaging and will also complete brain gauge in-person computer assessment
Online Trainings habits and resources
Trainings can be accessed through the online dashboard and include videos exercises and application opportunities Trainings include strategies to efficiently manage complex information by abstracting its essential meaning rather than attempting to memorize Training will also include strategies for stress management and healthy sleep routines as well as other brain health education and resources Most trainings are no more than 10 minutes a day
Online Coaching
Online coaching sessions will be offered to participants Participants can elect to take advantage of this offer to the extent they chose
