Brain boot camp: virtual classes aim to sharpen minds in epilepsy

NCT ID NCT05954182

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a 12-week virtual group program led by a neuropsychologist can improve memory, focus, and daily functioning in adults with epilepsy. Participants learn brain-health strategies and practice them for a year. Researchers compare their progress to a group that does not receive the training.

What this could lead to
