More and more research reveals a powerful message: that we—not our genes—can have control over our cognitive health today and the destiny of our brains. By understanding the simple tips we’ll share in this presentation\, you can help ensure your brain health lasts longer. \nPLEASE NOTE: WORKSHOP IS IN PERSON AT THE WOMENS CENTER IN VIENNA\, VA
