Brain - Mark D'Esposito - Cognitive Function


Listen Later

Cognitive function expert Dr. Mark D'Esposito joins us to explore how we plan, organize, and make decisions, with the prefrontal cortex at the center of these processes. In this episode, we explore how cognitive control and executive function shape our ability to manage behaviors and tasks. As Dr. D'Esposito highlights, "It's what makes us human." Stress, poor nutrition, and lack of sleep can disrupt cognitive function, but understanding how to protect and enhance the prefrontal cortex can help us stay sharp.
