Hello everyone,
Mark your calendar for the upcoming Dinner Meeting to be held at 5:00 PM, Sunday, June 23, 2013. In
keeping with the “Humanist” component of our organization, we feature
educational programs at our monthly Dinner Meetings that cover a broad
range of topics of interest to the membership.
This
month’s featured speaker is MMAH member Dean Reinke who will be
presenting on the neuroplasticity of the brain. The title of his talk
is Cognitive Reserve: what it is and why you should have some.
Dean’s Profile:
Dean
moved to Lansing from Minnesota one year ago. His background is in
computer programming which requires mental clarity and focus. Dean
survived a major health event 7 years ago which compromised his
cognitive reserve, and he is working on rebuilding it to prevent his
likely descent into dementia. To gain greater knowledge of his health
problem, Dean thoroughly researched the subject, and has written
extensively on it. According to Blog Nation, Dean’s blog on the subject
is the most popular among the medical blogs they cover.
Dinner and Socializing will be from 5:00 PM to 6:15 PM.
Presentation will start at 6:30 PM.
