Our expert speaker will guide you through cutting-edge research on how exercise influences neuroplasticity, the brain's incredible ability to adapt and reorganize itself. Different exercises affect how the brain reorganizes itself in health and after neural injuries like strokes. Learn about these exercise-neuroplasticity links and how they affect our lives. Of note, the lecture will provide insight on how you can apply the research findings in exercise and neuroplasticity to your day-to-day life for a more resilient brain. This is a singe lecture on 7/10.
