Successful Aging & Your Brain focuses on understanding how the brain works and maximizing brain function and health. The program includes live public forums, printed resources, and a Successful Aging & Your Brain On Demand, a one-hour YouTube video program.
Successful Aging & Your Brain forums are dynamic discussions by an expert panel followed by a Q&A session with the audience, covering how the brain changes as we age, memory loss, brain diseases and disorders, and maintaining cognitive function.
Recently the Dana Foundation presented a Successful Aging
& Your Brain program in New York.
Neuroscience experts Wendy A. Suzuki, Ph.D., Matthew E. Fink, M.D. and
Scott A. Small, M.D. discussed how the brain works, brain diseases and
disorders and tips for leading a brain healthy lifestyle. Moderated by Manhattan Borough President Gale
Brewer, this informative and engaging one-hour program includes video clips
from the program and an in depth look at the four factors that may contribute
to the maintenance of cognitive function.
