No matter what your goal, learning and skill acquisition are major bottlenecks to success. But what if you could reduce the time it took for you to learn? Our guest today, Dr. Daniel Chao has spent his career doing just that!\\xa0 After graduating from Stanford Medical School with an MD in neuroscience, Dr. Chao started developing tech that primes your brain for learning. The result... Halo Sport.

In this episode, Dr. Chao and Ben dive into how learning happens in the brain and more importantly how we can influence it.\\xa0 They discuss the mechanism behind Halo Sport\'s success and how they have improved it for the soon to be released Halo Sport 2.\\xa0
