Course Description

As we age, some cognitive abilities decline: working memory, attention and the ability to learn new complex tasks. We will explore some brain anatomy and brain ecology with our own bodies, as well as the environment and the difference between procedural tasks and declarative tasks. We will proceed to explore how trauma, stress, rest and nutrition affect us and what activities help our brains to stay sharp. Finally, we will explore what makes a person a cognitive super-ager.
