In this episode we talk about dementia and how the concept of "cognitive reserve" has the potential to explain why some people are more resilient to it than others. Jon Simons, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge, and Simon Warsop, Life Analytics Director at Aviva, share the plans for a long-term study to measure cognitive reserve and talk about how improved accuracy in measurement is the first step towards understanding and ultimately increasing our resilience to the effects of dementia. https://www.cam.ac.uk/business/aviva If you have been affected by dementia and need some support or information, these are places that can help: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/dementia-connect-support-line National Dementia Helpline (UK) - 0300 222 11 22 www.ageuk.org.uk
