            <description><![CDATA[<p>Santa Cruz, CA, July 27, 2010<br />HAPPYneuron, Inc., the leading provider of professional cognitive therapy solutions (<a href="http://www.scientificbraintrainingpro.com/" target="_blank">http://www.scientificbraintrainingpro.com/</a>), has launched the 'Aging Well' cognitive therapy program on its Scientific Brain Training PRO tele-medicine platform. The Aging Well program is a scientifically designed and validated course of supervised cognitive stimulation to help healthy seniors and those suffering from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) deal with the symptoms of memory loss and cognitive decline. The Aging Well program resides on the Scientific Brain Training PRO tele-medicine platform and empowers cognitive therapists with the necessary tools to work effectively with their patients both within the clinic and their patient's home.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Aging Well program (<a href="http://www.scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/aging-well" target="_blank" title="SBT Pro">http://www.scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/aging-well</a>) is designed by award winning Dr. Bernard Croisile, MD Neurology, Ph.D. and consists of 23 adaptive cognitive exercises in the form of interactive games. These games have been built to target a particular set of cognitive functions and to heighten patient engagement. Cognitive skills stimulated include memory, attention, language, visual-spatial skills and executive functions. The program framework contains many important features developed specifically for seniors such as larger fonts, larger buttons, touch-screen compatibility, little time pressure and plenty of hints and tips to encourage progress. "Our residents feel their skills are enhanced thanks to their work with the Aging Well program. They are very motivated by these new formats of memory workshops." Ms. Desroches, Clinical Therapist, La Providence Nursing Home, Le Coteaux, France.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The program can be administered by any professional care provider including cognitive therapists, geriatricians, nurse practitioners, cognitive psychologists, independent living and assisted living staff. Leveraging the power of the Web, clinical therapists now have all the tools necessary to assign seniors to the program, provide personalized coaching services and monitor program compliance and performance over time. "Designed with the professional therapist in mind, The Aging Well program on Scientific Brain Training PRO brings together tele-medicine delivery of critically important cognitive stimulation programs that enables, for the first time, fully supervised distance therapy. This can play an important role in enabling seniors to<br />stay in their homes and live more vital year," said Laura Fay, CEO, HAPPYneuron, Inc.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Aging Well program delivers objective performance measurements helping in the assessment of patient cognitive decline over time. These measurements make the case for Medicare or Medicaid reimbursements of needed services. "Objective measures of patient performance are essential to support the case for continued reimbursable services," noted Bruce Brotter, PhD, COO and Director of Clinical Services, Memory Training Centers of America, whose organization offers memory treatment services for patients with MCI & Early Alzheimer's disease.</p>
<p><br />The Scientific Brain Training PRO platform is highly scalable making it suitable for individual therapist practices and large hospital systems alike. Currently the four cognitive treatment programs available include Cognitive Rehabilitation (<a href="http://scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/rehabilitation" target="_blank">http://scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/rehabilitation</a>) (TBI, Stroke), Cognitive Remediation in Psychiatry (<a href="http://scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/cr-psychiatry" target="_blank">http://scientificbraintrainingpro.com/programs/cr-psychiatry</a>) (Major depression, Schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder and PTSD), Aging Well (healthy seniors, MCI) and Memory Treatment (MCI and early Alzheimer's' disease). Free 30-day trials are available for all qualified professionals. To learn more, visit www.SBTpro.com. About HAPPYneuron, Inc.

<div>
<div><em>HAPPYneuron is the first to surpass the 50M  milestone for data  results, while increasing its brain game portfolio  with the launch of  its 38th training game.</em></div>

<p>Mountainview, Calif. -- A first in the brain fitness industry,  HAPPYneuron announces that it has amassed more than 50 million cognitive  performance results worldwide in its online cognitive cross-training database, further strengthening its  position as the largest brain fitness database available on the market today. This record number of data points allows HAPPYneuron to  quickly and reliably provide the highest standard of accuracy in peer  performance feedback.   Today HAPPYneuron also launches its newest executive  function game,  Countdown,  a math based game that engages working memory,  long-term memory, mental imagery, and  concentration. With the addition of this new game, HAPPYneuron's  portfolio is now the largest collection of games offered by any online  brain training program.  HAPPYneuron's robust  game collection delivers significant novelty and variety to the program  and makes for more effective adaptive brain training workouts based on  an individual's cognitive strengths and weaknesses. These are essential  elements of effective brain training outcomes. This growing game  collection and HAPPYneuron's increasing user base means the collection  of results will only continue to grow. As more data is amassed, it  benefits HAPPYneuron users through an increasingly accurate assessment  of their cognitive  training as compared to their peers.</p>
<p>"Passing the 50 million game results milestone allows HAPPYneuron to  provide the highest standard of accuracy in user performance feedback,"  says Bernard Croisile,  MD, PhD, Founder and Chief Scientist at  HAPPYneuron. "This wealth of information provides an important cognitive  brain wellness indicator."</p>
<p>Users that received a sneak peak of Countdown are excited about  HAPPYneuron's new offering. "We love the new Countdown game. It's a  great addition to the brain training program for our seniors," said Mitch Migliori, Director of Unitah County  Brain Exercise Center, Utah.</p>
<p>HAPPYneuron's database size is a result  of the company's commitment to continually innovate and publish new  scientific brain games and its growing popularity around the globe.  HAPPYneuron games are developed by a team of neurologists,  cognitive psychologists and educational scientists to specifically  target the five major cognitive brain functions of memory, attention, language, executive function and visual/spatial skills.</p>
<p>Increasing scientific evidence shows that actively participating in  appropriately designed brain cross-training workouts can slow the  effects aging has on the brain. The benefit of cross-training with new  and novel material is well documented by research scientists and is  critical for the generation of new neural networks in the brain. The HAPPYneuron online brain training program offers the  most variety, novelty, and relevantly tailored feedback of any product  of its kind on the market.</p>

            <title>SBT/HAPPYneuron: Symetrix Joins The SBT Group</title>
            <link>http://www.sbt-corp.com/en/news/press-releases/66-sbt-acquires-symetrix</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>SBT invests in e-learning partner SYMETRIX, now holding 69% of its capital</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>SYMETRIX, the subsidiary of the XPerteam group, has opened up its capital to the SBT group: The operation will partly be financed with stocks but mainly with a capital increase to back up the company’s expansion, finance the necessary research and development activities to finalize a new generation of administrative and innovative e-learning solutions development software.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Founded in 2003, the companies SYMETRIX and GENEZIS, its 99.9% subsidiary, are established in Grenoble, France. They develop production tools for interactive training contents and create customized e-learning contents.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>By the end of the fiscal period up to June 30th, 2009, SYMETRIX achieved 1.3 million Euros in sales. The company recorded an average profit of 3% over the past three years</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Since January 2009, SBT and SYMETRIX have been working on the Learning Games Factory project which is financed by the ERDF (European Regional Development Fund) to develop a new generation of serious games editing tools.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>SBT is expecting both technical and business synergies:</p>
<p>• SYMETRIX’s know-how in computer graphics and educational conceptualization will make it a real opportunity to develop the attractiveness and originality of the products of SBT and its other subsidiaries.</p>
<p>• Greater product differentiation on the e-learning market through SBT’s cognitive skills assessment know-how.</p>
<p>• In the Human Resources department Symetrix links up with the ARNAVA, SBT’s subsidiary specialized in recruitment assessment, thus meeting the needs of all customers of the group with skills in both assessment and training.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>SBT confirms its desire to position itself as a supplier of innovative solutions, based on the company’s expertise in cognitive sciences in the Human Resources sector.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>SBT’s Chairman of the Board of Management, Michel Noir, congratulates himself on this investment. “SYMETRIX will bring an essential area of expertise to the SBT group as it rounds off our know-how in the evaluation field and will allow us to offer innovative solutions to meet the training needs of our customers”.</p>
<p>SYMETRIX’s managing director Pascal Stievenard states: “Joining the SBT group will provide SYMETRIX with the necessary means for its growth on a fast-growing market as the quick development of the serious games market has shown over the last two years”.</p>
<p>SYMETRIX’s historical shareholder, EXPERTeam, will remain active and maintain its support in the commercialization of their e-learning solutions.</p>
<p>Pierre-Henri Amalric, XPerteam’s chief executive, is delighted that SBT becomes the main shareholder of the company SYMETRIX. This operation will grant SYMETRIX the necessary means for further development and a new life to the company.</p>

<p>Mountain View, CA -- January 15, 2010 -- Today at the  SharpBrains Global Virtual conference, HAPPYneuron Inc. announce the  launch of HAPPYneuron PRO, an online professional destination that  delivers managed cognitive therapies for impairments caused  by  neurotraumatic, neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions such  as Traumatic  Brain Injury Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Stroke, Schizophrenia,  Depression, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's disease and  more.</p>
<p>The HAPPYneuron PRO online platform today hosts two programs,  Rehabilitation and Schizophrenia, with many more available in the coming  months. The Rehabilitation  program Rehabilitation program enables the ultimate in  customizability for unique patient needs. It has been designed by Dr.  Bernard Croisile, M.D. Neurology, Ph.D. Neuropsychology, and the  exercises have been used in France for over 7 years by cognitive  therapists. The Schizophrenia  program Schizophrenia program is a complete cognitive cross  training program, designed to address the most debilitating cognitive  impairments experienced by patients with schizophrenia. The  Schizophrenia program was designed in partnership with specialists form  the Lausanne Hospital, Switzerland, validated by scientific research and  in use by a number of clinics in France, Switzerland and USA.</p>
<p>Each HAPPYneuron PRO program provides a series of cognitive  stimulation exercises in the form of interactive FLASH games each  designed to target a particular set of cognitive functions and to  heighten patient engagement. Cognitive skills stimulated include memory,  attention, language, visual-spatial skills and executive functions.  "The HAPPYneuron PRO platform delivers highly engaging cognitive skills  training programs. Our patients are motivated to work on these web-based  exercises because of the appeal of the exercises themselves, and  because they are able to track their own progress and performance." said  Enid Gertmenian, LMSW, Lieber Recovery and Rehabilitation Clinic, New  York City.</p>
<p>The HAPPYneuron PRO cognitive rehab tools cognitive rehab tools harness the power of the web to enable clinicians  to create accounts for their patients and assign an appropriate  cognitive training program for their particular condition. The clinician  can monitor the patient's program compliance and performance via the  professional interface and gain objective performance measurements.  Further, the clinician or researcher can customize the treatment  program, and supplement in-office rehab with in-home exercises, thus  reducing cost and facilitating a more patient-centric cognitive  stimulation program.  "The advantage of the HAPPYneuron PRO platform is  that it allows individuals to receive a more consistent dose of  cognitive enhancement, thereby enabling the flexibility to design  innovative research studies not previously possible." said Christopher  R. Bowie, PhD, Dept Psychiatry & Psychology, Queen's University,  Ontario, Canada.</p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p><span id="ContenuTexte"><strong>Mountain View, CA (SBT) November 24, 2009</strong> -- HAPPYneuron's most  popular and addictive game, SplitWords, is now available on the iPhone  and iPod Touch. Split Words is designed to help banish that 'tip of the  tongue' syndrome forever. <br /><br /> <br /> <br />The SplitWords iPhone brain game challenges the brain by encouraging  users to form complete words as quickly as possible from a set of  syllables in a table. Words are categorized into themes and can have 2  or 3 syllable parts. The online version of <a href="http://www.happy-neuron.com/iphone-brain-games/splitwords/" target="_blank">SplitWords</a> has been shown to be addictive for many  people. The SplitWords iPhone brain game has been designed to be equally  addictive.  <br /> <br />With SplitWords <a href="http://www.happy-neuron.com/iphone-brain-games/splitwords/" target="_blank">iPhone brain game</a>, people can publish their high  scores to compare themselves to the world's best players. The iPhone  brain game is available in English, Spanish, French, German and Dutch to  give the brain a true multi-lingual workout. Two versions of the game  are available -- the Quick challenge: A game with one set of syllables -  for when users only have a few minutes to spare, and the Standard game,  enabling continuous play with increasing difficulty up to 100 levels.<br /><br /> <br /> <br />The ability to use language is a very important part of human  cognition, and in modern-day life, verbal skills are of critical  importance. Language brain games challenge the ability to recognize,  remember and understand words. "Regular engagement with language games  can expand the knowledge of new words and make retrieval of familiar  ones much easier," said Dr. Bernard Croisile, M.D., Ph.D. , and Chief  Science Officer at HAPPYneuron. The brain area exercised by the  SplitWords iPhone brain game is the left temporal lobe, which gets  activated when information retrieval is called upon.  <br /> <br />"We are excited to continue to innovate and to extend our brain  fitness programs to the iPhone platform, giving users new ways to  exercise their brain," said Laura Fay, CEO of HAPPYneuron, Inc..  "HAPPYneuron's iPhone brain game is a great way to train your language  skills during your down time on the go," she added. <br /> <br />Information about HAPPYneuron's iPhone SplitWords brain game can be  found by clicking on  http://www.happy-neuron.com/iphone-brain-games/splitwords/. It is  available for download at the AppStore for only $3.99. A free demo  version is also available. </span></p>]]></description>
