Cognitive and Emotional Health: The Healthy Brain Workshop
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and the National Institute on Aging (NIA) are embarking on a major new initiative to understand issues related to cognitive and emotional health in U.S. adult populations – particularly how cognitive and emotional/mental health can be maintained and enhanced as people grow older. The project will assess the state of epidemiological research on demographic, social, and biologic determinants of cognitive and emotional health in aging populations, and the pathways by which cognitive and emotional health may reciprocally influence each other. It will seek to answer questions such as: Can individuals optimize their cognitive function and emotional health? How do psychosocial variables influence cognitive outcomes? And, can new technology (e.g. imaging) be used to identify those with the “healthiest” brains?
