Can Exercise Improve Memory In Epilepsy?! - Dr. Jane Allendorfer

from Epilepsy Sparks Insights · host Torie Robinson

Can exercise improve memory in people with an epilepsy? Dr. Jane Allendorfer explores how physical activity may drive measurable changes in verbal learning, memory function, and hippocampal connectivity! Building on a 6-week pilot study showing improved memory performance, we hear about her newly completed randomised clinical trial investigating exercise for memory rehabilitation in epilepsy, aiming to determine whether changes in brain networks can explain cognitive improvement and help predict who will benefit from intervention.   👕 Join the Epilepsy Sparks community with our merch 👇🏻 https://epilepsy-sparks.creator-spring.com   🌐 More Epilepsy Sparks Insights 👇🏻 https://www.epilepsysparks.com/epilepsy-sparks-insights   🎧 Listen to the Epilepsy Sparks Insights podcast on Apple, Spotify, or your favourite provider!   🔤 Don’t understand all the terms used?
