AARP's Staying Sharp Program

Brain Health

Get advice on brain fitness from the top neuroscientists in the country!

Have you ever wondered whether your memory lapses are normal or a sign of more serious problems? Find out answers to this and many more questions about brain fitness from top brain scientists who know how to talk about current brain research in easy-to-understand language.

Recent advances in brain research are revealing the incredible flexibility of the brain -- what neuroscientists call brain "plasticity." Brain fitness for people of all ages goes beyond "use it or lose it" to a more optimistic "use it, to improve it!"

Staying Sharp Forums invite you to listen in on a two-hour conversation among neuroscientists, discussing the latest information about the mature brain. Staying Sharp Forums are free to AARP members. Check listings below to see when a Staying Sharp Forum is coming to your part of the country and call (877-926-8300) to reserve a seat.
