This volume discusses the current state of research findings related to healthy brain aging by integrating human clinical studies and translational research in animal models. Several chapters offer a unique overview of successful aging, age-related cognitive decline and its associated structural and functional brain changes, as well as how these changes are influenced by reproductive aging. Insights provided by preclinical studies in mouse models and advanced neuroimaging techniques in humans are also presented.
Part 2. Cognitive and emotional perspectives in aging
Part 3. Reproductive aging
Part 4. Medical and psychiatric factors in aging
Part 5. Modifiers of brain aging.
