The talk was informative and engaging. There was lots of  scientific data and research, and practical advice that was relevant, relatable, and engaging.

The talk is brilliant. You learn about the aging brain how to prevent dementia etc. so you don't spend your retirement savings on assisted living or expensive medications.
