Optimal BrainHealth for Warfighters is a science-backed optimization program driven by metrics and training to help service members think sharper, recover faster and sustain peak cognitive readiness.
Sign up to receive updates on our work with warfighters, as we strive to scale this data-driven brain performance program to every service member – advancing cognitive resilience, readiness and recovery.

IMPACT AT A GLANCE
For more than 25 years, Center for BrainHealth has moved brain health forward across the military.
- 6,500+ warriors, veterans and spouses reached
- 840+ BrainHealth assessments completed
- 450+ service members trained
- 170+ personalized coaching sessions delivered
- 50 Human Performance Specialists trained
Watch this 5-minute video to see how our results create measurable gains in performance, recovery and resilience.
Warfighters face challenging situations, unknown conditions and ever-changing demands that require strategic, deeper-level and innovative thinking to navigate. While physical readiness is continuously trained ― brain performance is not.
Staying physically fit allows warriors and protectors to rebound faster from injury, but the standard for brain health is different. We have heard far too many say – “they say I may be ‘normal’, but I am not me.”
This program ensures our service members can:
- Think clearly under pressure.
- Recover faster from traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post-traumatic stress (PTS).
- Maintain peak cognitive readiness over time.

Help Support Our Military Initiative
We have trained 6,500+ military cohorts, veterans and spouses in SMART™ Brain Training, with randomized trials showing significant gains in neural health, cognition, well-being, connectedness and real-life function.
Research shows military service members face consistent interrelated health and functional impairments, including traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress, sleep disturbance, depression, addiction and suicide — yet most current interventions fail to capitalize on neuroplasticity, even though evidence shows the brain retains a remarkable capacity to be continually strengthened and rewired.
