Neurobiology of Aging

Neurobiology of Aging: Exploring Cognitive Decline and Neurodegeneration, 1st Edition, edited by Sachchida Nand Rai, provides a specialized reference detailing the biological processes associated with age-related cognitive impairment. The volume focuses on cellular and molecular mechanisms of brain aging, examining key phenomena such as neuronal loss, synaptic dysfunction, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation.

The text incorporates specific biological processes, detailing protein misfolding and aggregation alongside its role in dementia with Lewy bodies. Beyond pathological markers, the text evaluates environmental factors and lifestyle interventions, addressing the influence of diet, physical exercise, sleep patterns, and cognitive stimulation on brain function.

This 342-page reference supports researchers and graduate students working in neuroscience, psychology, aging, neurobiology, cognitive decline, and neurodegenerative diseases. Released by Academic Press, the book synthesizes mechanistic insights into a unified resource for academic inquiry.
