Next Lecture in The Resilient Brain Series: "Inflammation and the Brain" Happens October 21st
A live, science-based conversation with Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, PhD, presented as part of The Resilient Brain series.
- How chronic, low-grade inflammation disrupts the brain's signaling and repair systems
- The role of immune activation in shaping both white matter and gray matter over time
- How everyday environmental stressors — toxins, diet, and chronic stress — feed the inflammatory cascade
Reserve Your Seat for Inflammation and the Brain
Join us live on Wednesday, October 21st, for a focused look at how inflammation shapes brain health across the lifespan. Registering for this session also enrolls you in the remaining sessions of The Resilient Brain series.
The webinar begins at 5:00 PM Pacific / 8:00 PM Eastern and will be presented live through Zoom.
Part of The Resilient Brain Series
This webinar is one session in Dr. Dayan Goodenowe’s six-part exploration of brain health across the lifespan. Register once and you will also be enrolled in the remaining live sessions in the series.
Inflammation is often treated as a downstream reaction, something that shows up after damage has already occurred. Dr. Goodenowe explores it as a persistent factor in brain health, influencing how the brain changes throughout the aging process
A Focused Conversation on the Inflammation–Brain Connection
Inflammation influences far more than injury recovery. Immune signals intersect with the systems involved in white matter integrity, gray matter volume, cognitive function, and the way the brain changes throughout life.
In this live session, Dr. Dayan Goodenowe will bring those connections together through an accessible, science-based conversation designed for anyone interested in understanding brain health more clearly.

What We'll Cover
One hour centered on the ways chronic inflammation and brain health intersect across the human lifespan.
Rather than treating inflammation as a single-system story, this session connects its influence across brain tissue, cognition, environmental exposure, and aging.
- Inflammation and Immune Signaling — A clear foundation for understanding how immune signals interact with the brain.
- White Matter and Gray Matter — How chronic inflammation affects these two brain tissue types differently.
- Environmental Stressors — The role toxins, diet, and chronic stress play in fueling neuroinflammation.
- Cognitive Function and Mood — Why inflammation is connected to how we think, feel, and regulate emotion.
- Long-Term Brain Health and Aging — How the inflammation–brain relationship changes from early exposure through later life.
Why Inflammation Isn't Just an Injury Response
For many people, inflammation is discussed primarily in connection with injury, infection, or
everyday immune responses. But the inflammation-brain relationship reaches much further, into
cognition, mood, and aging.
Looking at these systems together can provide a more complete framework for understanding brain
health across the lifespan. This session is designed to make that bigger picture accessible without
reducing complex biology to oversimplified claims.
This is an educational conversation, not a diagnosis or treatment plan. The goal is to understand the science, the relationships researchers are exploring, and why immune signaling matters to the brain.
Join Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, PhD, as we explore:
- Inflammation as a Signal — What immune signaling is and why the brain responds to it.
- White Matter and Cognition — How chronic inflammation intersects with thought, processing speed, and mental performance.
- Gray Matter and Mood — Why inflammation may influence emotional regulation and behavior.
- Environmental Stressors and the Brain — How toxins, diet, and chronic stress are connected to brain function.
- Brain Development — Why early inflammatory exposure matters during different stages of development.
- Inflammation and Aging — How the inflammation–brain relationship evolves over time.
Register Now — One Session, a Lifespan Perspective
This webinar brings together subjects that are often discussed separately: white matter, gray matter,
cognition, mood, and long-term brain health. The common thread is the way inflammation and
immune signaling interact with the brain.
Whether your interest begins with brain health, immune health, environmental health, or healthy
aging, you will leave with a clearer framework for understanding how these systems connect.

INTRODUCING OUR SPEAKER
Dr. Dayan Goodenowe
Dr. Dayan Goodenowe is a biochemist and brain health researcher whose research into the biochemical mechanisms of the brain started in 1990. His curiosity about the biochemistry of life remains as insatiable today as it was over three decades ago.
Dr. Goodenowe developed advanced bioinformatic and analytical technologies, and has spent over three decades researching the biochemical mechanisms behind neurological health and the aging process.
As the founder of Prodrome Sciences, Dr. Goodenowe’s research focuses on studying and researching the biochemical processes involved in cellular function. He is also the author of a bestselling book on brain health and biochemistry.
His current focus is to study the biology of aging and the biochemical processes that influence how the body functions over time.
A Direct Look at the Inflammation–Brain Connection
This live webinar moves beyond the idea that inflammation belongs to one isolated area of health. It examines how immune signaling intersects with the brain across white matter, gray matter, cognition, mood, and aging
What You'll Take Away:
- A clearer understanding of how chronic inflammation communicates with and influences the brain •
- Why white matter and gray matter can be affected differently by the same inflammatory processes
- How environmental and lifestyle stressors connect with brain function
- Why immune signaling matters during long-term cognitive health
- How the inflammation–brain relationship evolves across the lifespan
- A more connected framework for thinking about inflammation, brain health, and aging

Don't Miss This Evening
Whether your interest begins with cognition, mood, environmental health, or healthy aging, the same underlying question connects them: how does chronic inflammation interact with the brain?
This webinar brings those relationships into one focused, science-based conversation with Dr. Dayan Goodenowe. You will not be given a one-size-fits-all treatment plan. You will leave with a clearer framework for understanding the inflammation–brain connection across the lifespan.

They reflect personal experience, not typical or guaranteed outcomes, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Some contributors may be participants in our professional education or practitioner programs.
Dr. Goodenowe's research has completely changed how I think about biochemistry and the aging process. His approach is grounded in real science, not speculation.
Finally, someone who explains complex science in a way that makes sense and empowers me to think differently about health.
I am an Apollo Health Coach with a background in Bio/chem, and when I listened to Dr. Goodenowe's research, I was fascinated, intrigued and blown away. My heart beats for science, and his work has started to 'hang together' in ways that make real sense.
Dr. Goodenowe's approach to biochemistry is thorough. He doesn't stop at surface-level explanations—he focuses on the underlying mechanisms that matter for cellular health.
