The Aging Brain Conference 2024
Place: Union hotel, Geiranger
Time: 12th-14th June 2024
Price: 6600 NOK
Understanding and optimizing brain aging is pivotal in meeting the demographic shift and ensuring that the increase in health span is accompanied with a similar or even better cognitive health span. The aim of this conference is to provide the attendants with a thorough understanding of the anatomical, physiological, metabolic, molecular, and genetic underpinning of brain aging and how these may link to cognitive adaptations and other health outcomes. The concepts or cognitive and brain reserves as well as brain maintenance, and the potential of preserving cognitive functioning in a lifetime perspective will round up the conference.
1 ECTS can be claimed for PhD students who take a 1-hour written exam after the conference. Please contact Asta Håberg for registration and reading material.
This conference is organized by the Trondheim fMRI group, MiDT national research centre, St. Olav's Hospital, and Department of Neuromedicine and Movement Science, NTNU.
