Description
Mahboubeh Motaghi and co-authors explore brain age in a 2025 study of memory loss. Brain age is read from MRI scans, and relative brain age compares one person's brain with others of the same age. A brain that looks older than its years has been tied to poor health and faster decline.
The team tracked healthy adults and people with mild memory loss for up to five years. In the memory loss group, relative brain age helped predict change in word recall and other skills. Machine learning models forecast test scores with small errors. The authors also link brain age with cognitive reserve, the buffer built by schooling, work, and verbal skill.
