Ultrasis launches New Brain Training product:

MyBrainSolutions - A revolution in corporate health and wellbeing

Ultrasis is pleased to announce a strategic collaboration with Brain Resource Ltd to distribute a revolutionary new web based corporate wellbeing program called www.MyBrainSolutions.com in the UK.

Brain Resource Ltd has built the world's first and largest, standardised and integrative international database of the human brain. It includes measures of brain function, brain structure, genetics and clinical and behavioural outcomes. It is currently delivering the largest international Personalised Medicine Study in depression.

Ultrasis has integrated their self help programs into the MyBrainSolutions platform so that people using the program can get immediate access to solutions for stress, anxiety and insomnia, as well as a wide range of training and educational programs to maximise their performance.

Nigel Brabbins, Ultrasis Chief Executive, said: "Ultrasis and Brain Resource share a common objective of delivering evidence based and scientifically proven solutions for common health problems through the use of web and computer based technologies.

"The team at Brain Resource has created a unique approach that supports users to self assess and then be directed to a wide range of online programs and tools to exercise their brains and become more effective in what they do."

He added: "With the recent publication on workplace wellbeing by Dame Carol Black that identifies the need for employers to support their staff to improve wellbeing and increase performance, there has never been a better time to launch this innovative product in the UK and we are delighted to be working with Brain Resource on this development."

Dr Evian Gordon, Chief Executive at Brain Resource, said: "MyBrainSolutions brings together into one site a personalised assessment that is matched to personalised brain training and stress reduction solutions. We are delighted to have been able to integrate the Ultrasis range of self help programs into the suite of www.MyBrainSolutions.com solutions.

"Ultrasis will also be distributing Webneuro, Brain Resource's online Clinical Decision Support System for detection, treatment management plan and monitoring brain health in conditions such as depression and ADHD."
