Webinar Overview

The concept of cognitive resilience (CR) to Alzheimer’s disease and other neuropathologies can be defined as the continuum from better to worse cognition than expected given the degree of neuropathology in the brain. In this talk, Dr. Maude Wagner will present recently developed longitudinal approaches to quantifying CR at the individual level and discuss how they can help capture key complementary dimensions of CR and identify risk factors that promote/preserve CR over time.
