CNN —President Joe Biden said Friday that his poor performance in last week’s debate was a bad night but not evidence of a serious condition. When asked on Friday whether he’s had cognitive tests and an exam by a neurologist, Biden said no. Biden gave no indication he would be willing to have such tests conducted in the aftermath of his debate performance. “So, again, pretty important for a job like president,” Ranganath added. “Part of those evaluations will look at the overall health of the individual, from neurologic health to also cognitive health,” she said.

Siegler is a cognitive “SuperAger,” possessing a brain as sharp as people 20 to 30 years younger. She is part of an elite group enrolled in the Northwestern SuperAging Research Program, which has been studying the elderly with superior memories for 14 years. Once accepted, colorful 3D scans are taken of the brain and cognitive testing and brain scans are repeated every year or so. A SuperAger’s brain, usually donated to the research program by participants after death, also has bigger, healthier cells in the entorhinal cortex. SuperAger brains had three times fewer tau tangles, or abnormal formations of protein within nerve cells, than the brains of cognitively healthy controls, the study also found.
