Brain Years introduces a functional brain-age approach using EEG and task data; this article previews a discussion about its potential as a tracking tool.

Can we make the brain age backwards?
Key Takeaways
  • Brain Years estimates functional brain age using EEG signals, event-related potentials, and task performance variables derived by machine learning.
  • The model’s primary value is tracking change over time to detect intervention-driven shifts rather than only labeling current brain age.
  • Prospective, placebo-controlled trials and comparisons with MRI and blood-based clocks are necessary to confirm that score changes reflect true biological brain aging.
