UCL Institute of Neurology, Department of Brain Repair and Rehabilitation (F82) The Department of Brain Repair and Rehabilitation aims to understand mechanisms underlying neurological diseases and develop new treatments for patients with neurological conditions. The Department brings together several different areas of basic and clinical neuroscience, encouraging collaboration both within its various teams as well as with other departments across the Institute of Neurology, the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery, the Faculty of Brain Sciences and UCL at large.

This presentation will explore how staying physically active supports brain health as we age, while also addressing why studies in this area have sometimes produced mixed results. A central goal is to make sense of these inconsistencies by highlighting key factors that shape outcomes—such as how much exercise people do, how consistently they stick with it, their baseline health and risk profiles, and how brain and cognitive changes are measured. By placing past findings within this broader context, the talk will offer a clearer framework for understanding what works, for whom, and under what conditions, ultimately helping to guide more personalized and effective exercise recommendations for brain health.
