Startup Cognivive Plans Games as Digital Therapies

Caption

Cognivive, a startup company founded by a UC Davis neuroscientist, is developing video games that act as "digital medicine" to treat children with cognitive impairments, as well as people with cognitive limitations resulting from brain injury or aging. The company will be featured at the APLU/AAU Innovation Showcase in Washington D.C. Nov. 13-14. Shown is a screen capture from "BrainPixel," one of the prototype games developed by the company.
