Everyday Neuro 003: How Staying Active and Sociable Supports Memory and Reduces Anxiety in Older Age

I discuss the clinical profile and hallmark biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease, and the research that suggests that lifestyle factors such as exercise can be beneficial in reducing the impact of the disease on behaviour and wellbeing.
