  "abstract": "Brain and mental health disorders are heterogeneous, dynamic, and increasingly managed through combinations of pharmacologic, psychotherapeutic, neuromodulatory, and digital interventions. Psychoeducation remains foundational though it is often delivered in static, standardized formats, in which fluctuations in cognition, affect, insight, and readiness to learn are not explicitly addressed. This chapter proposes Neuroscience-Informed Psychoeducation (NIPE) as a digital, individualized, and adaptive neurotechnology platform that reframes psychoeducation as a learning-driven intervention targeting mechanistic understanding, metacognition, and self-regulation. NIPE is conceptualized as a closed-loop learning system in which multimodal brain-behavior and contextual inputs are used to infer clinically meaningful functional states, such as arousal, fatigue, attentional stability, and affective load. These states guide responsive delivery of neuroscience-grounded explanations and skills, followed by explicit evaluation of learning-relevant responses and reinforcement processes that support consolidation and durable skill transfer beyond the platform itself. The chapter describes how adaptive personalization can be implemented through layered approaches, including rule-based logic to preserve interpretability and safety, data-driven machine learning to estimate functional learning states and optimize content delivery, and constrained generative interfaces to translate validated concepts into personalized language while maintaining clinical fidelity. Because NIPE sits at the interface of psychoeducation, digital therapeutics, and clinical decision support, trust, ethics, and equity are treated as core system requirements rather than downstream considerations, with emphasis on ongoing consent, privacy, transparency of adaptive processes, and alignment with clinical workflows. NIPE outputs are framed to support patients, clinicians, and health systems through low-burden learning summaries, interpretable clinician-facing dashboards, and group-level insights that extend beyond engagement metrics. Finally, the chapter outlines future directions for NIPE, including mechanistic studies of learning and metacognition, evaluation designs for adaptive interventions, and platform-level validation and governance. Together, NIPE is positioned as an infrastructure for brain-based learning support for patients and their stakeholders.",
