有關Dr. Jenny Brockis:
Dr. Jenny 醉心研究腦部及及人類行為,使她由護士改而投身醫生行列,在醫護界服務超過30年,期間修讀營養醫學、腦神經科學領袖課程,及靜觀訓練。她創立了 Brain Fit,並著有三本有關腦健康及提升腦功能的書籍。
Jenny 曾主管自己的醫務集團,亦為Royal Australian College of General Practitioners(皇家澳洲醫護人員學院)會員,及澳洲職業演講會會員。因她能將複雜的腦科學轉化成適合不同年齡人士用來改善腦功能的實用方法,使她成為得獎演說家。

她對自己的介紹: (摘自 http://wiseotsolutions.com.au/jenny-brockis/)
「我的工作是要提升任何年齡人士的腦部健康。 對我來說,作為一個健腦專家,就好像腦技師一樣,為人的腦袋調較一下讓他們運作的更好。 我作為普通科醫生的時候,我越來越感不安:因我發現原來我們常常在處理上游流下來的問題:即不斷要處理因為劣質的生活習慣選擇,或對今天節拍急速、複雜,且充滿挑戰的世界缺乏解決策略而帶來的後果。

當下我主動決定離開診所的工作,全情投入去向解決源頭問題。我因此於2011年成立了Brain Fit。今天,我與商界領袖、管理人員及教育工作者,一起發展出對腦部友善的文化,使所有人的腦部均感到安全、被尊重及具價值。 因我相信這是真正能推動我們,及令我們保持健康,並於最佳狀態中運作。 我發現很多人有興趣知道多一點關於自己的腦袋及它如何運作。 建立對腦的認知,能提供改善其他腦部功能的基礎, 如怎樣能夠更專注,學習得更有效,管理轉變、更能與人合作及發展領袖技巧。
