Successful memory aging
For more than 50 years, psychologists, gerontologists, and, more recently, neuroscientists
have considered the possibility of successful aging. How to define successful aging remains …

[HTML][HTML] Brain structure and phenotypic profile of superagers compared with age-matched older adults: a longitudinal analysis from the Vallecas Project
Background Cognitive abilities, particularly memory, normally decline with age. However,
some individuals, often designated as superagers, can reach late life with the memory …

Youthful brains in older adults: preserved neuroanatomy in the default mode and salience networks contributes to youthful memory in superaging
Decline in cognitive skills, especially in memory, is often viewed as part of “normal” aging.
Yet some individuals “age better” than others. Building on prior research showing that …

Genetic contributions to variation in general cognitive function: a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies in the CHARGE consortium (N= 53 949)
