Season 1, Episode 8: Partnering with Youth to Spark Brain Health w/ Dr. Francesca Farina

This World Alzheimer’s Month, we engage in a topic that is largely under-addressed – youth brain health. Public health recommendations encourage a life course approach to brain health and dementia prevention, however much of the public discourse, research and interventions around these topics center middle and late adulthood. Young adulthood and the potential brain health risk factors are largely neglected in dementia research and policy making despite this demographic being highly exposed to several known modifiable risk factors. Globally, the potential risk and protective factors that have the biggest effect on dementia outcomes in young adulthood remain unclear. Our guest today on the Dancing into Brain Health Podcast is neuroscientist and Assistant Professor in the Pritzker School of Medicine at the University of Chicago, Dr. Francesca Farina. In our discussion, she introduces a new initiative that is shining a light into the topic of youth brain health.
