Four Capabilities, One Platform

  • Assessments

    Deploy participant-reported questionnaires and the NeuroCognitive Performance Test (NCPT) — a validated, web-based battery with one of the world's largest normative datasets.

Built for Researchers Across Sectors

The Lumosity Research Platform is available to research organizations across all sectors — academia, industry, non-profit, government — and disciplines.

  • Academic Researchers

    Design and conduct studies using validated assessments, cognitive interventions, recruitment, and real-world data.

  • Pharma, Biotech and Med Device

    Support clinical research, provide trusted cognitive endpoints, and accelerate participant recruitment.

  • Healthcare

    Measure and track cognition and cognitive health across patient populations.

  • Nonprofit Research

    Access research infrastructure and reach participants without having to build these capabilities.

  • What is the Lumosity Research Platform?

    A purpose-built system for cognitive research that brings together cognitive assessments and questionnaires, cognitive training interventions, participant recruitment, and real-world data in one place.

  • What types of studies can I run?

    The Lumosity Research Platform supports three broad types of study:

    • Intervention research: Clinical trials and other intervention studies at any stage, from feasibility through post-market — using cognitive assessments and participant-reported questionnaires as outcome measures, digital cognitive training as the intervention, or both.
    • Prospective observational research: Evaluation of cognitive performance, learning, and other aspects of cognition alongside surveys and participant characteristics.
    • Real-world data analysis: Big data analyses of real-world use of Lumosity and the NCPT, with demographics and other participant characteristics.
  • How does it relate to the Human Cognition Project?

    The Human Cognition Project (HCP) is Lumosity's research initiative, which includes collaborations with qualified academic and not-for-profit researchers. HCP collaborators can access the Research Platform for free or at a discounted price. The Lumosity Research Platform is a set of tools used in research studies regardless of whether those studies are part of the HCP.

  • How do you protect participant privacy?

    How research data is collected and stored depends on which Research Platform tool is being used:

    • Cognitive assessments and cognitive training — participants use anonymous accounts, so no personally identifiable information is stored or required by the platform. Researchers are responsible for distributing individual accounts to each of their participants. These accounts are managed separately from consumer Lumosity accounts.
    • Real-world data — data from real-world Lumosity use is de-identified.
    • Participant recruitment — participation is opt-in.
