Dr. Kuhn says we have long assumed that getting older means facing a decline in memory, attention span, numerical ability, creativity, alertness, learning ability, and language. "But we were wrong," she adds. "New findings from science show that if the brain can be consistently stimulated, no matter our age, the brain can remain youthful and healthy."
