Trinity College and The Olin Neuropsychiatric Research Center at the Institute of Living are conducting a study on cognitive rehabilitation after brain injury.

All treatment is with paper or computer; it does not involve any medications or medical procedures.

You will be asked to take an fMRI of your brain and participate in cognitive rehabilitation once per week for one hour over 8 weeks.
