Research on Aging: New Images of Memory and the Aging Brain How do we know if our brain is successfully aging? Since the brain structure changes with both age and disease it has been hard to distinguish between the two. Now with exciting advances in brain imaging, new insights into the aging brain have emerged. Join us as James Brewer, MD, PhD, talks about his pioneering work with brain imaging which can lead to earlier and more accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative illnesses. Clues to maintaining healthy brain function are also discussed.
