Abstract
⺠Brain and cognitive reserve (BCR) can provide neuroprotective and compensatory capacities. ⺠The neurobiology of BCR has been informed by environmental manipulations of animal models. ⺠Beneficial effects of environmental enrichment have been studied in brain disease models. ⺠Enhanced sensory, cognitive and motor activity has molecular, cellular and behavioural effects. ⺠Animal models of BCR may aid development of novel therapeutics (e.g. enviromimetics).
