64: Creative Experience Delays Brain Aging

This episode dissects an article that investigates the relationship between creative experiences and brain health using quantitative metrics known as brain clocks to measure deviations from chronological age, or brain age gaps (BAGs). The research utilized a large sample of participants across various creative domains—including dance, music, visual arts, and video games—to show that creative experiences are associated with delayed brain aging (lower negative BAGs).
