. Journal of Mental Health and Aging, 7 (5): 01-02 (September 2023)

Abstract

The human brain, a masterpiece of complexity, remains a source of wonder as we journey through life. As the years unfold, the brain, like the rest of the body, undergoes changes, leading to questions about the nature of cognitive abilities in later life. In recent years, research has shone a spotlight on a phenomenon that challenges preconceived notions: neuroplasticity. Often associated with the youthful brain, neuroplasticity, the brain's remarkable capacity to rewire and adapt, also extends into later life. This article delves into the concept of neuroplasticity in the context of aging, unveiling the brain's potential for cognitive resilience and offering insights into how harnessing this potential can lead to a richer and more vibrant aging experience 1.
