{{s|wikipedia|Ryuta Kawashima}} ({{ja|川島隆太|Kawashima Ryūta}}, ''Kawashima Ryuta'') is a real-world neuroscientist from {{s|wikipedia|Chiba City}}, {{s|wikipedia|Japan}}, who is known for his studies on the mapping of the various regions of the human brain and the effects of age on one's ability to learn. His most well-known work is a book entitled ''{{s|wikipedia|Train Your Brain: 60 Days to a Better Brain}}'', which claimed that continued activities that stimulate the brain, such as basic mathematics and reading aloud, could be used to stave off the mental effects of aging. The book became a success, particularly in Japan, and his work was later adapted as a video game series by Nintendo, entitled ''{{uv|Brain Age}}''. In the games, Dr. Kawashima appears as a polygonal head, acting as a trainer for the player.
