Results: Firstly we have to deal with normal versus pathological brain aging debates. Secondly, the biopsycho-social model of age-related neurodegenerative events may also be the heuristic skeleton of understanding and delaying normal brain aging. We further present a holistic but integrative research paradigm dealing with the bio-psycho-social model in brain aging and certain preliminary research outcomes.
