-----

What is dementia, and how do we measure it? Join us for a fascinating conversation with Dr. Emily Rogalski, a tenured professor of neurology and expert in aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and brain health. Dr. Rogalski dives deep into the nuances of dementia—explaining key differences between aphasic and behavioral types, why certain symptoms emerge, and how they progress over time.

We’ll explore the science behind Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders, the role of protein misfolding, and emerging research on selective vulnerability in the brain. Dr. Rogalski also sheds light on the lifestyle and genetic factors influencing early-onset Alzheimer's, as well as actionable steps to enhance brain health and reduce dementia risk.

Don’t miss her insights on superagers—individuals who defy typical cognitive aging—and what they teach us about prevention and healthy living. Whether you're a caregiver, healthcare professional, or simply curious about brain health, this episode offers valuable knowledge and hope for the future of dementia research.
