Brain Training vs. Cognitive Decline: What Five Years Revealed


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Sylvie Belleville talks through the latest results from a trial involving older adults experiencing mild cognitive impairment. This work emphasizes how targeted cognitive training and memory interventions could potentially slow the progression of mild cognitive impairment and may help sustain long-term cognitive function. The trial results offer compelling perspectives on non-pharmacological interventions for delaying the onset of dementia in individuals experiencing early cognitive changes.
