Author, physician and research scientist Dr. Eric B. Larson will offer practical advice about growing old with resilience and foresight. His book proposes a path to resilience that may help you maintain vitality as you age.

Steps include:

1) Being proactive about your health.

2) Accepting the changes that come with growing older.

3) Building strong physical, mental, and social reserves.

Dr. Larson’s advice is based on his experience leading one of the world’s largest and longest research studies aimed at preventing dementia. He also shares inspiring stories from his experiences with patients, study participants, family and friends.

Sponsored by KCLS Foundation and in partnership with the Frye Art Museum, Aging Wisdom, Northwest Center for Creative Aging, Era Living and the UW Memory and Brain Wellness Center.
