Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of exercise and cardiorespiratory fitness on age-related brain changes
Detailed Description:
The mission of the KU Brain Aging Project is to promote healthy brain aging How the brain changes with age is not well-characterized and even less is known about the factors influencing the rate of brain aging Thus we are using MRI scans to examine the structure of the brain in relation to important lifestyle factors This will allow us to better understand the processes influencing the brain as it ages In turn this will help identify specific ways to promote healthy brain aging and perhaps prevent the onset of Alzheimers disease
Participants complete 4 visits over several months The first visit entails a clinical evaluation and memory testing involving the use of paper and pencil testing The second visit is an MRI brain scan which lasts approximately one hour The third visit involves drawing blood for laboratory testing and blood banking for future lab studies lasting roughly 4 hours The glucose tolerance test is administered The fourth and final visit is an assessment of the participants metabolism and exercise testing This visit lasts approximately two hours
