The project focuses on neurorehabilitation for patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) experiencing attention and memory issues, in collaboration with the Institute of Mental Health (IMH), Singapore.

50 MCI patients from IMH will undergo a neurorehabilitation protocol in which they play neurofeedback games targeting memory and attention skills.

Project Deliverables/Outcomes/Impact:
  • A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI)-based neurofeedback system to train MCI patients, enhancing short-term memory, focused attention, and visuospatial skills.
  • Improved standard of care for older adults through deployment of the games in community and health centres.
