Veterans with brain injuries test remote brain training to boost memory and focus

NCT ID NCT04109027

First seen Nov 17, 2025

Summary

This study tests two remote brain-training programs for Veterans who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and struggle with memory, attention, and goal-setting. About 120 Veterans will use either BrainStrong-GSR or BrainStrong-OPT, both delivered via tele-rehabilitation with digital app support. The goal is to see if these programs help Veterans improve cognitive skills needed for work, school, and daily life.
