Why are some people immune to age-related cognitive decline?

Emily Rogalski, ‘07 PhD, is part of a team of scientists taking a glass half-full approach to studying cognitive aging. Instead of focusing on factors that can lead to dementia and neurodegenerative disease as people grow older, they concentrate on the factors that can protect memory. They do this by investigating seniors in their 80s, 90s and beyond who have remarkable memory power, a tiny subset of the population they call SuperAgers.
