Lumos Labs

Lumosity’s mission is to pioneer the understanding and enhancement of the human brain, giving each person the power to unlock their full potential. Lumosity’s web and mobile programs are designed to train core cognitive abilities such as memory and attention. Launched in 2007, Lumosity has over 40 million members, and is one of the fastest growing online consumer subscription sites.

Lumosity works closely with academics, and its technology fuels studies being conducted by researchers at Harvard, Stanford, UCSF, and other top institutions. As part of the Human Cognition Project, Lumosity has helped put together the world’s largest database of human cognitive performance. This data, along with collaborations with researchers worldwide, puts Lumosity at the center of study on real-world application of cognitive training.

Lumosity also provides a program for schools K-12 called the Lumosity Education Access Program (LEAP), which seeks to study the effects of cognitive training on students performance.
