25/06/2020 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Join VHS and the Open University for the second in series of joint online events exploring ageing, health and wellbeing. The title of the second talk is: The Ageing Brain.

Led by Dr Jitka Všetečková who currently works at the Faculty of Wellbeing, Education and Language Studies, The Open University. Jitka undertakes research in Public Health with special interest in Ageing, Dementia, Exercise and Mental Health.

In this series we are exploring how important it is, over our lifespan, to maintain a well-balanced nutrition and hydration as well as regular physical and social activity in the older age, also known as the ‘Five Pillars of Ageing Well’. This particular talk will cover basic facts on neurodegenerative conditions associated with ageing and age related and  non-age related memory loss.

Once registered, we will send you the link for the online event and information on accessing the meeting.
