Osher Lifelong Learning Inst.- Aging Brain

Robert Hamill presents the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute program “Protecting the Aging Brain: Lifestyle Matters” at the Nolin Murray Center on Pleasant Street in Springfield, Vt. Robert Hamill, M.D., professor of neurological sciences in the College of Medicine at University of Vermont helps us understand the key concepts of neuroplasticity – the ability of the nervous system to change and modify structure and function. He also discusses how the brain is able to respond to modifying influences throughout life, providing an opportunity for interventions to positively influence aging biology.
