Dr. Elkhonon Goldberg,
Ph.D., ABPP

President & CEO, Founder

Dr. Elkhonon Goldberg is a neuropsychologist and cognitive neuroscientist as well as Chief Scientific Officer at Monclarity.

Dr. Goldberg's interest in protecting, restoring and even enhancing cognitive functions goes back to the very beginning of his career. It was rekindled more recently through the convergence of several scientific and technological breakthroughs. First, increasingly compelling evidence was becoming available that neuroplasticity was a life-long phenomenon and not just the phenomenon of early childhood. Second, it became clear that neuroplasticity can be controlled by the individual's cognitive activities. Third, the rapid development of software, internet and mobile devices was providing increasingly powerful tools for the design and delivery of cognitive enhancement tools.

For the last two decades, the potential for cognitive enhancement has been central to Dr. Goldberg's interests and thinking, so he welcomed the opportunity to help launch Brainwell with great enthusiasm. He further welcomes the opportunity to introduce you to the exciting field of neuroscience.
