SUMMARY:Universe of the Brain: Build a Better Brain
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that doing something challenging – including something you fail at before mastering – changes the wiring of your brain? \nJoin the HR MacMillan Space Centre and the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health for another lecture in their Universe of the Brain series.Take part in an interactive evening\, with leading experts in neuroscience\, under state-of-the-art visuals in the planetarium star theatre. \nThis practical and empowering talk will provide tangible ways to improve your brain health and wellbeing through non-prescription lifestyle interventions anyone can do. \nSince all of our behaviours change our brains learn how exercise\, exposure to nature\, social connections\, and creativity can optimize brain health across several aspects of our lives. \nAbout our speakers:\nDr. Lara Boyd is the Canada Research Chair in Neurobiology of Motor Learning\, a Michael Smith Foundation for Health Career Investigator\, a Peter Wall Scholar\, and a Professor in the Department of Physical Therapy\, at the University of British Columbia. She is a Neuroscientist and Physical Therapist\, and directs the Brain Behaviour Lab at the University of British Columbia. Her work is centered on answering the question of what limits\, and what facilitates\, neuroplasticity. Dr. Boyd is also the Health Research Advisor to the Vice President for Research at UBC and the University’s delegate to the Canadians Institutes for Health Research. \nDr Silke Appel-Cresswell is a movement disorder neurologist\, trained in Germany\, London (UK) and Vancouver\, BC. She is an Associate Professor (grant tenure) for Medicine/Neurology at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and holds the Marg Meikle Professorship for Research in Parkinson’s disease. Dr Appel-Cresswell is a founding director of the BC Brain Wellness Foundation to foster wellbeing in chronic brain disease and aging through exercise\, arts\, nutrition\, mind care\, and education. \nDoors open at 6:45. \nTickets: $20\, available on Eventbrite (until noon on December 12th).
