"We want to inspire older people to lifestyle changes"

Miia Kivipelto and Krister Håkansson have written the cover article in the coming issue of Scientific American (April 2017). The article describes the results of the FINGER study and how the NBN (Nordic Brain Network) research team is working to follow up on these.

"The magazine's global reach means that millions of people in different parts of the world can now read about these positive research results. We hope this article will inspire lifestyle changes that can improve brain health, especially in the growing older part of the world population", say the two authors.
