Brain Health: a review of recent medical literature by Ron Gester, AVV Board member & retired emergency physician.
“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.” ~ Mark Twain
The surprising corollary is that if you do mind, it does matter and age is less of an issue.
The best years of our lives may well be ahead of us.


Although the presentation is not about psychology, it is inspired by the June 26, 2023 Hidden Brain podcast titled “The Best Years of Your Life”. Shankar Vedantam, interviews Stanford psychologist Laura Carstensen.

 Highly recommended.


Laura L. Carstensen is a professor at Stanford University and
the author of “A Long Bright Future” (2009). (Not to be
confused with “A Bright Future” by Qvist and Goldstein,
currently being read by AVV’s climate action book group.
Coincidence?)

Please Note: Our gatherings are open to everyone, but we recommend staying current on your vaccinations. Thank you!

Please RSVP with the coordinator – thank you!
