Excellent Brain has partnered with the Scholas Occurrentes network to implement neurofeedback training in schools for students with ADHD. The initiative aims to provide attention-support tools to regions currently lacking access to such resources.
Why it matters
By integrating neurofeedback technology into the global Scholas Occurrentes network, the collaboration seeks to expand non-pharmacological support for young people. The agreement also provides structural support for the ongoing action-research groups of the organization.
Scholas Occurrentes connects 500,000 schools and universities across 70 countries and has reached 2.5 million youth. Excellent Brain, founded in 2015, provides neurofeedback technology based on its existing clinic and distributor networks.
