Dr. Rex Jung recently appeared on PBS Affiliate KNME Channel 5, Albuquerque-Santa Fe, during the airing of the documentary The Brain Fitness Program. The program is scheduled to be rebroadcast twice– December 27th at 7PM, and again on January 1st at 11:30 am.

Public television stations across the country will air this special program that will explore the brain’s amazing ability to change throughout a person’s life. This phenomenon—called neuroplasticty—is the science behind brain fitness, and it has been called one of the most extraordinary scientific discoveries of the 20th century.

This PBS special explains the brain’s complexities in a way that both scientists and people with no scientific background can appreciate. The show is narrated by Emmy Award-winning actor Peter Coyote and features experts in the field of neuroplasticity, including Dr. Norman Doidge, Sharon Begley, and Dr. Michael Merzenich, founder of Posit Science and creator of the Brain Fitness Program software. The two-hour show is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about how our minds work—and to find out more about the latest in cutting-edge brain research.
