Brain Waves: I Keep Forgetting My Keys… Do I Need A Cognitive Test?

Do you know how well your brain works? How would you know if your brain function is declining? On this episode of Brain Waves, we’ll be exploring those questions and the role of neurocognitive tests, and thus what can be done to keep our brains sharp. Joining us are neurogeneticist Dr Azlina Ahmad Annuar and Dr Reuben N. Robbins, Associate Professor of Clinical Medical Psychology from Columbia University.
