About the Author

Valentin Bragin, M.D., Ph.D., is a psychiatrist and the founder and medical director of the Stress Relief and Memory Training Center (SRMTC) in Brooklyn, New York, where more than 2,000 patients have been treated within the first 12 years of its operation. Dr. Bragin graduated and earned his Ph.D. from one of the oldest and most prestigious medical schools in the former Soviet Union, the Russian Medical Military Academy in Leningrad. Dr. Bragin also holds an engineering degree in computer science (medical informatics). His areas of interest include stress and stress-related disorders, aging, and rehabilitation of brain functions in people with cognitive problems. He has dedicated many years of his medical career to researching the impact of stress on illness and overall health. For the last seven years, Dr. Bragin has focused on the preservation of cognitive functions in the elderly who suffer from memory loss and depression. His strategy involves an integrative treatment approach utilizing the brain's own reserves and resources, which can be activated at any age. The foundation of his Brain Activation Program is a set of unique sensory-motor exercises that are presented in this book. Dr. Bragin enjoys using these exercises himself and strongly believes that they can slow down or at least postpone the process of memory decline. He continues to develop new and unique sensory-motor exercises. The results of Dr. Bragin's treatment program have been presented at national and international conferences and have been published in the American Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias in 2005. Dr. Bragin is the author of numerous publications.
