Research Focus Areas

Behavior and Cognition

Human cognitive testing and cognitive training are a central component of the CAM Center research program. Projects are focused on understanding and improving memory and executive functioning, which are cognitive domains that are known to decline in older adults

Biomarkers, Risk Factors and Co-morbidities

Discovering and analyzing the mechanisms underlying cognitive decline, and identifying key genetic and modifiable lifestyle factors that predict decline and increase the probability of developing comorbid age-related diseases.

Neurophysiology and Functional Brain Mapping

Visualizing and analyzing brain activity in conjunction with cognitive processing and behavior.
