Preferred term

neurobiology of aging  

Definition

  • The 1990s were designated the “decade of the brain,” and we have in fact learned much about this most mysterious of the human bodily organs over the past few years. As we have gained knowledge about the brain, we have also learned much about the dynamics of the brain as it develops over time—changes that have a profound impact on the aging process overall.
