This eye-opening presentation with Dr. Lou Cozolino will focus on the healthy aging brain from the perspectives of social neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology. The brain will be described as a social organ whose health and longevity is embedded in a matrix of social connectedness. The brain’s evolution and development as well as its changing skills and abilities throughout the lifespan will be interpreted as a succession of adaptations to changing social roles. From these perspectives, we will take a new look at the aging research from epidemiology and the social sciences and present some suggestions to promote healthy aging.
