  Healthy Cognitive Aging\nPresenter: Dr. Teresa Liu-Ambrose\, Professor\
 , Department of Physical Therapy\, University of British Columbia\, Cana

 \nDr. Teresa Liu-Ambrose\, PhD\, PT\, Professor\, is a physical therapist 
 and a Canada Research Chair at the University of British Columbia\, Depart
 ment of Physical Therapy. She directs the Aging\, Mobility and Cognitive H
 ealth Laboratory (http://cogmob.rehab.med.ubc.ca) as well as the Vancouver
  General Hospital’s Falls Prevention Clinic (www.fallsclinic.ca).\n\nDr.
  Liu-Ambrose’s research focuses on understanding the role of exercise in
  promoting cognitive and mobility outcomes in older adults.Her research ex
 pertise are in randomized controlled trials\, exercise prescription for ol
 der adults\, cognitive neuroscience\, and mobility in aging. Her research 
 findings have been implemented into clinical practice\, community programs
 \, and influenced international practice guidelines to promote healthy agi
 ng.\n\nTalk Summary: As the world’s aging population rapidly increases\
 , efficient (i.e.\, effective and cost-effective/cost-saving) strategies t
 o promote healthy cognitive aging at a population level becomes a necessar
 y health care priority. Physical exercise is an inexpensive treatment that
  could have substantial preventative and restorative properties for cognit
 ive function and brain health. In this presentation\, we will review the c
 urrent evidence regarding the role of physical exercise in promoting cogni
 tive and brain outcomes in older adults. We will also highlight potential 
 sex differences in exercise efficacy and critical windows to intervene for
  females.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n&nbsp\;
