SUMMARY:Community Health Talk |  Mild Cognitive Decline: What It Is and What You Can Do About It
DESCRIPTION:Community Health Talk:\nMild Cognitive Decline: What It Is and What You Can Do About It\nMany people wonder where “mild cognitive decline” fits between normal aging and dementia. Dr. Omar Ahmad breaks down what it means\, shares what emerging neuroscience reveals about the brain’s ability to grow at any age\, and explains why this discovery is vital to both cognitive health and long-term protection. In partnership with Dr. David Whitt\, an internal medicine physician with Diley Medical Group\, we are raising awareness about early cognitive changes and how proactive care can make a difference. Together\, Dr. Ahmad and Dr. Whitt will discuss how to talk with your primary care doctor about cognitive concerns and how to access available resources\, and will answer your questions live. \nWhen:\n• Monday\, January 12 | 6:00 – 7:00pm \nWhere:\n• Philip Heit Center (150 W. Main St\, New Albany\, OH)\n• Conference Room on the 1st Floor\n• The parking lot and main entrance are located behind the building \nFee:\n• Free to attend\, but please register online since space is limited. \nAbout the Instructors:\nDr. Omar Ahmad is a neuroscientist and computer scientist\, and the world’s leading expert and designer of cognitive and motor strengthening—and hippocampal brain-growing—virtual experiences. He is the inventor of Neuro Animation and its integrated therapies for the treatment and prevention of neurological and cognitive-motor disease and decline. His work has revolutionized cognitive and motor improvements for stroke\, Parkinson’s\, Alzheimer’s and dementia\, and other neurological diseases and disorders where hippocampal atrophy plays a role. Previously\, Dr. Ahmad was the director of innovative engineering in the Department of Neurology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine\, and director of the Kata Design Studio\, which he founded at Johns Hopkins to push cognitive-motor disease treatment outcomes beyond standard of care and historical plateaus. Dr. Ahmad designed the execution strategy at Johns Hopkins to implement cognitively beneficial therapies across the continuum of care\, from in-patient to custom-built outpatient facilities centered around his technology. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins and has been featured in National Geographic and The New Yorker. \nDr. David Whitt earned his Chemistry degree from The Ohio State University and his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine from Nova Southeastern University. He completed his Internal Medicine residency with OhioHealth and has practiced in Central Ohio for around 25 years.\nAs the owner of Diley Medical Group\, Dr. Whitt leads a collaborative\, physician-directed care model focused on improving patient outcomes and reducing unnecessary hospital visits. He is known for his compassion\, professionalism\, and commitment to providing high-quality care with respect and kindness. \nREGISTER NOW
