Brain Health Scotland is delighted to announce the launch of the world’s first free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on brain health from a sport & exercise perspective. The course, which went live on 25 April 2022, aims to build knowledge for anyone who plays sport, or exercises regularly, at any level, introducing key concepts and practical tips to support brain health across the life course. This new resource has been developed in response to direct calls from athletes asking for evidence-based information and support. The course content is delivered in an engaging and interactive format and features perspectives from former international sports stars and Olympians. Brain Health Scotland is developed in partnership with Alzheimer Scotland and is funded by the Scottish Government. The course can be accessed at: https://www.brainhealth.scot/sportscourse
