Hoe weet je als L&D-er of iemand een talent heeft? En hoe help je iemand om een talent te laten groeien en onderhouden? In deze aflevering duiken Jeanne en Jan-Peter in de wereld van talenten. Dit doen ze onder andere naar aanleiding van het boek De Talentenfluisteraar van Luc Dewulf. Ze leggen uit aan welke vier elementen je een talent kunt herkennen en hoe je ze kunt ontwikkelen, zodat je altijd onderbouwd kunt zeggen: “Ik denk dat je hier een talent voor hebt.”Deze podcast komt uit in de landelijke Brain Awareness Week waar wij elk jaar aandacht aan schenken.Kijk hier voor meer informatie over deze podcast:https://www.brainbakery.com/brainsnacks/hefboomvaardigheden-de-sleutel-tot-talentontwikkelingOp https://www.brainbakery.com/brainsnacks vind je onze blogs.Wil je meepraten, laat een voice berichtje achter:https://www.speakpipe.com/brainbakerySupport the show

One unique way to help seniors feel great about themselves is via memory training. In this episode, Dana Steinova discusses her memory training approach based on mnemonics. Its power is in its ability to change the mindset of people who suffer from memory lapses and people who are giving up, accepting their memory problems as inevitable or something that belongs to the natural aging process. Her program convinces the participants that, in reality, they have tremendous mental potential. They activate special circuits in the brain that people unfamiliar with such techniques leave idle. The program works because cognitive and social effects are so connected. People learn to remember well and usually don't resist performing their new skills in front of family members or friends.Once people get proof that they can remember well, they start to approach any new information with a positive expectation that they will remember it, which affects the result. The outcome is that they minimize memory lapses in daily life. They do not need any calendar because they keep the entire year in their mind and can tell you what day of the week is any date in the current year. They can easily remember a shopping list with 150 items or any line of digits, and they improve their ability to remember faces and names.In this episode, participants will discover how to:Use mnemonics rather than memorization to make memories more durableMinimize memory lapses.Exercise new parts of the brain and build our brain reserve to help in the case of stroke, brain injury, or onset of dementia.About Dana Steinova:Dana Steinova travels the world training memory trainers. Based in Prague, she is a specialist in organizing educational activities. She is also the very active secretary general of the European Federation of Older People (EURAG), created in 1962, with 156 member associations in 33 European countries.She holds degrees from the Institute of Enlightenment, the Economics University, and the Charles University in Prague. She has, over the past 30 years, initiated a wide variety of programs, including the U3A movement in the Czech Republic (1986), reciprocal senior student exchanges with more than 42 exchanges within its first ten years (1991), and founding the first intergenerational non-vocational "University of Free Time" (1993) in the Czech Republic.She is fascinated by neuroscience and has been deeply involved with memory training since 1993. She founded the Czech Society for Memory Training and Brain Jogging in 1998 and later, the EURAG Memory Training Center in Prague in 2002 with the objective of making training opportunities available worldwide. Since then she has traveled the world extensively to achieve this objective. She organized the first National Day of Memory Training as a part of Brain Awareness Week, the worldwide event launched in 2005 by the DANA Alliance of the Brain and which takes place in March every year. In 2008 it became the National Week of Memory Training and has been growing ever since. In 2016, 309 free lectures were held throughout the Czech and Slovak Republic, attended by 7,781 persons.Get in touch with Dana Steinova:Visit Dana's website: https://www.trenovanipameti.cz/eurag-memory-training-center/  What to do next: Click to grab our free guide, 10 Key Issues to Consider as You Explore Your Retirement Transition Please leave a review at Apple Podcasts.

In the blink of an eye, the unthinkable can happen, an event in your life that cause you to ask - why me? Jane Enright survives three life-altering and tragic events in the span of a year, including a severe and sudden brain injury that left her almost speechless. This is Jane's story of how she used acceptance to acknowledge her fate and gratitude to reclaim her love of life. These moving stories are powerful lessons on managing grief, stress, loss, stagnation, indecision, and recovery. Today, Jane Enright is the author of two books, including her bestseller - Butter Side Up-How I Survived My Most Terrible year and Created my Super Awesome Life. Brain Awareness Week is March 13-19, 2023.  Every three minutes in Canada, someone suffers a brain injury. Add to that our aging population coming to terms with degenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's, Dementia, and ALS.  Wayne Bossert, Deputy Chairman of RBC Wealth and a Director of the Brain Canada Foundation, talks about how Canadian researchers are leading the way to improve brain health.

How is the neuroscience research community responding to its increasing societal importance? Why is international cooperation essential to its progress? What can an aspiring neuroscientist hope for? FENS (Federation of European Neuroscience Societies) is an organization trying to offer answers to questions like those. Founded in 1998, FENS has since then grown into a huge network representing 22 000 scientists in 33 European countries. They facilitate knowledge exchange and application, advocate for and promote neuroscience, and provide essential training for researches, all with the purpose of understanding the brain and helping it withstand challenges. As their executive director, Lars Kristiansen tells us more about their mission, where they see neuroscience and its role in the future, and helps us understand the progress of neuroscience. Pointing out that Alzheimer’s disease used to only be diagnosable post-mortem, he emphasizes that it is a lot of small steps that eventually make a condition less harmful and patients’ lives better. This is why, Kristiansen states, availability of all the accumulated knowledge is key to progress.To see how FENS contributes to this availability and how you can be a part of it, we are posting links to:- FENS neuroscience conferences: Forums of Neuroscience and Regional Meetings - advocacy and promotion activities: Brain Awareness Week and European Journal of Neuroscience, and- options for aspiring neuroscientists: hands-on training course programs and grants.Kim Baden-Kristensen is the co-founder and CEO of Brain+, a digital therapeutics company that helps people with brain disorders and injuries to recover their fundamental cognitive brain functions and daily life capabilities by using an app-based cognitive rehabilitation platform, which is developed in close collaboration with patients, clinicians and researchers.https://www.linkedin.com/in/kbadenk/ | Alessia Covello is a life science IT consultant working in the field of healthcare technology implementation, and advocating for better services for people with brain conditions and learning disabilities.https://www.linkedin.com/in/alessiacovello/Topics discussed:6:52 What is FENS?

What is basic science, and how is it significant in the realm of brain research and the future progress of our society? Your hosts Joe, Misha, and Ben sit down with Dr. David Fitzpatrick, Scientific Director of the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience and tackle those questions and more on the first episode of the Neurotransmissions podcast, tackling neuroscience stories from the lab and life - a special episode to celebrate Brain Awareness Week, 2016.

Eva LaDow is a post-doctoral fellow at the Gladstone Institutes of Neurological Disease. Her project at Gladstone aims to determine whether any drugs already approved by the FDA may also be used to treat ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease. She grows neurons, introduces mutant DNA into the neurons to mimic ALS, and then collects and analyzes the data. LaDow says her job is “full of cool things!” The “coolest” is working with the third generation of the lab’s automated microscope, the Brain Bot. The microscope allows her to take pictures each day of tens of thousands of individual neurons and keep track of them for weeks or months. LaDow also enjoys sharing the work she is doing with local high school students through special events like “Brain Awareness Week” and teaching at the Community College of San Francisco.

Since the 'decade of the brain' in the 1990s an increasing range of previously taboo subjects have been examined by neuroscientists. These include autobiographical memory, aesthetics, love and of course consciousness itself. The rise of imaging techniques which provide engaging pictures of brain activity have added to the appeal. Of course plenty of other discplines within the arts as well as science put the brain at the heart of their project. But how effectively has neuroscience integrated these other approaches into its work? And should the direction of brain research be left to scientists anyway? This lecture marks Brain Awareness Week 14-20 March.
