How does your brain age?...

Aging of the brain, like everything else, is inevitable. In Western's latest installment of its free lecture series, Classes without Quizzes, Dr. Jane Rylett, Chair of the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology at the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, and a scientist at Robarts Research Institute, discusses how research over the past couple of decades has revealed important clues about normal aging of the brain compared to degenerative processes such as Alzheimer's disease.

The lecture is set for Thursday, January 17 at 7:30 p.m. at the Westmount Branch of the London Public Library, 3200 Wonderland Road South. For more information, visit http://communications.uwo.ca/CWQ/
