Alexa Mosley

Alexa Mosley, a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Cambridge, discusses groundbreaking findings on how our brains function differently across five critical life stages: childhood, adolescence, adulthood, early ageing, and late ageing. She reveals how these phases affect brain efficiency and connectivity, shedding light on mental health and dementia risks. Mosley also dives into the implications of an extended adolescent phase and the gradual changes in early ageing. This insightful conversation highlights the significance of understanding brain organization for improving mental health outcomes.
