Ongoing research projects

Academic institutions in the US and Scandinavia are currently conducting research about working memory training, using RoboMemo. Cogmed Working Memory Training has shown effects on attention, impulse control and complex reasoning in controlled scientific studies at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. The results of these studies have inspired other researchers to start studies to deepen the understanding of working memory and the effects of training.

RoboMemo, the software used for working memory traning, is currently used in studies performed by researchers in different academic fields. We are proud to say that the following prominent researchers are conducting studies about training of working memory:

  • Christopher P. Lucas, M.D., M.P.H., Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Director, Early Childhood Services, New York University, Child Study Center. Learn more about the study.
  • Bradley S. Gibson, PhD, Associate Professor of Cognitive Psychology, Psychology Department Notre Dame University.
  • Enrico Mezzacappa, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and John C. Buckner, PhD, Clinical/Community Psychology, Department of Psychiatry, Children's Hospital Boston, Harvard Medical School.
  • Richard J. Shavelson, Margaret Jacks Professor of Education, Professor of Psychology (by courtesy), School of Education, Stanford University.
  • Lisa B. Thorell, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Women and Child Health, The Karolinska Institute Stockholm, Sweden

The results of these studies will be presented in their respective academic channels after conclusion.
