Join Atlantic Fellow FIONNUALA SWEENEY in conversation with ELISA RESENDE, Atlantic Fellow for EQUITY IN BRAIN HEALTH. Elisa works as a neurologist at a memory clinic in a hospital in Brazil. She is studying the effects of late life literacy acquisition as a dementia prevention tool through improving memory and increasing connections between brain areas. The idea is that it is never too late to engage in intellectual stimulation activities to promote brain health in vulnerable populations.
The ATLANTIC INSTITUTE is based in Oxford, England and works to promote connection and collaboration among Fellows from the seven Atlantic equity-focused programmes around the world in their quest for fairer, healthier, more inclusive societies.
