Barbara Young has been utilizing the principles of neuroplasticity since 1978, and her work has grown out of her own journey to transform her own brain. She is the founder of the Arrowsmith Program, an assessment process and suite of cognitive exercises designed to stimulate and strengthen areas of cognitive functioning that underlie a range of learning difficulties. Her work is recognized as one of the first examples of the practical application of neuroplasticity to address learning difficulties and its application has expanded to address those dealing with traumatic brain injury, addiction, cognitive decline with aging and those who want to enhance performance. Barbara is the recipient of the Leaders and Legends Innovation Award from the University of Toronto for her contribution to education.
