USC on Nintendo’s Site
I was reading about a new Nintendo DS game, Brain Age, when I stumbled into this paragraph:
Why is brain training good for you?
We all know as we grow older our bodies change and it becomes important to regularly exercise to maintain health and fitness. Our brain is no different. “Use it or lose it,” as the adage goes. New research indicates mental acuity may be strengthened, like muscles, with brain exercises.
Dr. Elizabeth Zelinski, dean and executive director of University of Southern California’s Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, says games like Brain Age can help keep older generations of Americans’ minds active. “Americans can do a great deal to maintain and even improve their mental abilities,” Zelinski explains. “Aging is about taking on new challenges for our minds. Nintendo’s Brain Age is a great way to do that.”
That’s where Brain Age comes in.
Yep, they quoted someone from USC.
