Research Seminar Series: The Role of Dietary Fats in Brain Health (April 2026)

In this research webinar, Dr. Kendra Furber will discuss how different dietary fats influence the lipid species found in the brain and how this relates to healthy brain aging. Age-related cognitive decline has been associated with changes in white matter structures, which are the nerve tracts that connect different areas of the brain. White matter was named due to its light appearance from high fat (or lipid) content, but we are still learning about the biological role of different fats in brain function.
