Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have built a brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) database to reveal how brain ages. We have also collected several cognitive functions, lifestyle such as eating and sleeping habits, and genetic data. Using the database, we have revealed normal brain development and aging, and also have revealed what factors affect brain development and aging. For example, several factors such as hypertension, alcohol drinking, smoking, and obese are risk of dementia. In addition, several disorders such as glaucoma and osteoporosis affects brain function. These findings help understanding the mechanism of brain aging.
