Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News featured a study led by Andrei Irimia on a new AI model that can measure the pace of brain aging. “Rates of brain aging are correlated significantly with changes in cognitive function,” Irimia noted. “So, if you have a high rate of brain aging, you’re more likely to have a high rate of degradation in cognitive function, including memory, executive speed, executive function, and processing speed. It’s not only an anatomic measure; the changes we see in the anatomy are associated with changes we see in the cognition of these individuals.”
