Featuring Dr. Roberta Brinton, neuroscientist and director of the Center for Innovation in Brain Science at the University of Arizona. Women make up nearly two-thirds of Alzheimer’s cases, but the reason why has only recently begun to emerge in the scientific literature. In this conversation, Dr. Brinton will explore the connection between menopause and the increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease in women, revealing how hormonal shifts during midlife can trigger early changes in brain energy and structure. She will share the latest breakthroughs in hormone therapy, including how timely intervention may reduce long-term cognitive risk, as well as emerging therapeutics aimed at preventing or even reversing early-stage neurodegeneration. Backed by decades of research into the aging female brain, Dr. Brinton will offer science-based strategies to help women protect cognitive function and build lasting brain resilience.
