Presented by Dr. Roger Miller, clinical psychologist specializing in brain health and cognitive aging.

Are you doing everything you can to protect your brain health as you age?

This engaging, evidence-based presentation will help you understand the difference between normal age-related memory changes and symptoms that may warrant professional evaluation and what you can do about it.

Dr. Miller will cover the vital roles that physical activity, nutrition, sleep, stress management, and social engagement play in supporting cognitive health and overall well-being. You’ll leave with practical, actionable strategies to incorporate into your daily routine to help preserve memory, maintain independence, and promote long-term brain health.
