Staying engaged while you age protects your brain
Update: 2025-05-27
Description
Neural connections rapidly develop in early childhood, but the brain continues to grow and refine these connections throughout our lives, even into older adulthood. That's why enriching experiences — such as traveling, socializing, education, and exercise — are particularly impactful for the brain and need to keep happening throughout our lives. Staying engaged is the topic of discussion this week on Dr. Greg Davis on Medicine. Elizabeth Rhodus, Ph.D., is an occupational therapist and assistant professor in UK’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging.
