Brain’s cognitive age can determine the right retirement age

More from this show

One’s age usually determines retirement, but what if it were based on how your brain performs? New research from Stanford Medicine found that our organs, including the brain, have a biologically different age from our chronological age. The average retirement age is between 62 and 67, but this new study found that those ages might not apply to everyone. 

Ross Andel, Professor at ASU’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation, joined “Arizona Horizon” to dissect what this report means for those considering retirement.
