Show Notes

My guest on Vibrant Lives Podcast this week is Associate Professor Tim Windsor, whose research centres around ageing well. Tim’s areas of interest include cognition, social behaviour and activity engagement during adulthood and ageing. Given the ageing of our population here in Australia, it is important work and something that is obviously relevant to everyone who ages.

We discuss what ageing actually means and how a person’s chronological age is not a perfect indicator of their biological age. Most of our discussion centres around the importance of meaningful engagement as we age, how this factors into maintaining cognitive health and what we can do to achieve this.

We all want to age well and we want our loved ones to age well so please tune in to benefit from Tim’s expertise.
