As we age, our brains undergo changes that can affect memory, cognition and overall health. Research is helping us understand these changes more clearly, while also identifying factors that may influence brain aging and the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
In this special, we bring together recent Daily27 stories exploring the brain, memory and aging, from dementia and Alzheimer’s disease to the role of genetics, loneliness and everyday life in maintaining brain health. Together, they highlight what science is revealing about how our brains change over time—and what may help protect them.
