Brain Scientist and Stroke Survivor Uses Big Brain Academy
Jill Bolte Taylor, a brain scientist who had a stroke and now since fully recovered, writes in her book My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey that she uses Nintendo's Big Brain Academy as part of her recovery training.
On page 128 of her book she write, "Now I work with the Nintendo Brain Training and Big Brain Academy programs. I think everyone over the age of forty, as well as every stroke survivor, would benefit from using this sort of brain training tool.
Big Brain Academy is available for Nintendo DS and for the Wii.
Jill Bolte Taylor is probably best known for her amazing talk she gave at the TED conference -- video of which you can find in the link provided.
