Dr. Jon Lieff has spent more than three decades exploring the mind and how it functions in both humans and nature. From the fascinating behaviors of animals and microbes, to the human brain and its ability to bounce back from injury, Dr. Lieff uses his expertise to help others better understand the world around them, and how it works on the most intricate levels.
But the health of your brain plays a critical role in almost everything you do: thinking, feeling, remembering, working, playing, and even sleeping. The good news is that emerging evidence suggests there are steps you can take to help keep your brain healthy as you age.
