There is strong evidence that task-specific training leads to changes in brain structure, as assessed using MRI-based techniques that probe microstructure or morphology. In the present study, we want to understand the specific mechanisms of action of task-specific training and identify other critical ingredients. Here, we used a well-established working memory training program and state-of-the art neuroimaging methods in 40 healthy adults. Further research on dose, timing, and duration of training is necessary to generalize the training protocols to the field of structural neuroplasticity.
