As the most trustworthy source of education on all neurologic conditions and brain health, Brain & Life offers a website, books, and a podcast for anyone interested in brain health. Produced by the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), Brain & Life is a member benefit for you, for your patients.

Brain & Life is Going Fully Online

To better serve readers’ needs, we’re phasing out the print magazine version of Brain & Life and focusing on creating double the amount of content and resources online. Our last print issue will be delivered to homes and patient waiting rooms in December 2025. Learn more.

How does this affect my patients’ access to Brain & Life articles and resources?
We know many readers truly value the print magazine. Moving to an all-digital format means the AAN can share helpful articles and resources with you and your patients faster, more often, and in new ways. You’ll have easy access to everything—anytime, anywhere—plus videos and timely updates. While we’ll miss the feel of print, this change helps us connect with and support you and your patients even better in the years ahead.

How does this affect my AAN member benefits?
Your member benefits remain strong. The AAN is deeply committed to supporting you and your patients through even more free articles, resources, and tools on Brain & Life’s website, podcast, and book series. Going fully digital allows us to keep expanding these offerings—so you and your patients have easy, ongoing access to trusted information whenever it’s needed.
