Movie Matinee for Seniors- "Singing in the Rain"

Many studies have shown that, across the lifespan, increased social activity is linked to a lower rate of cognitive decline. People who have more social contacts score higher on tests of memory and executive function (the cognitive processes that help you plan, organize, and complete tasks). However, if those social interactions are stressful and negative, cognitive scores decline. Increasing your social interactions can take many different forms. Luckily, many of the activities you might choose as part of a physical or mental exercise program will also provide social benefits.

Join us for a stress free afternoon of entertainment, and bring a friend! We will host a midday screening of the 1952 musical/comedy classic, "Singing in the Rain", followed by a facilitated discussion of Brain Health during the intermission. We can answer your questions about clinical research and how participating in a clinical study can help you contribute to science!
