Are cognitive declines inevitable as we age? What are the risk factors that contribute to cognitive aging, and what can be done to slow age-related brain changes? Join Dr. Michael Fearing as he discusses these questions using research backed information and data. A portion of the discussion will focus on the topic of brain fog.

Dr. Fearing completed his internship in Geriatric Neuropsychology through the Harvard Medical School and Boston Veteran’s Administration in Boston. He completed a 2-year postdoctoral research fellowship through the Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. He has authored and co-authored many peer-reviewed scientific journal articles.

Turning his focus to working with patients and clinical duties, Dr. Fearing has extensive experience in working with the geriatric population. He has held appointments at multiple rehabilitation centers and nursing homes. His specialties include Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and toxic exposure.
