Healthy aging - what are we learning?

Did you know that more than 51,000 Canadians have participated in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) to date?

A group of individuals aged 45-85 were enrolled in this research platform between 2010-2015 and we now know about the health of older Canadians over a 10 year-period! A study is now underway looking at predictors of memory decline as we age.

Recently I was asked to take part in the Memory Project, by conducting clinical assessments of a group of CLSA participants at the Montreal testing site. It feels like an honour to contribute to such an impressive endeavour and I'm now hard at work mastering the study procedures so I can get started!
