Exercise and the brain: If I get fitter, will my bran work better?

What does science tell us about how exercise impacts the brain? Join us on a journey to understand how physical activity can support brain health throughout the lifespan of a human being. Movement matters! And it doesn’t need to be strenuous. In this talk, we will touch on how we can best use various forms of physical activity to optimise our mental wellbeing and brain health throughout life, and how individual differences – from personality traits to the menstrual cycle – can affect these responses.

This talk is part of a webinar series from the Centre for Educational Neuroscience at UCL, Birkbeck University and the UCL IoE. You can register here to receive weekly updates about the seminar series.
