Dr. Ted Maldonado, Director of the Master’s in Psychology Program at Indiana State, explores recent advancements in understanding brain changes in advanced age. While aging is linked to declines in certain brain regions, research reveals that the brain remains highly adaptable. This session examines groundbreaking studies on brain aging, including non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). These methods are gaining recognition for their potential to enhance cognitive function and mitigate age-related decline. Insights from current research will highlight new approaches to maintaining brain health and improving cognitive resilience in later life.
