Researchers from areas including psychology, neuroscience, education and kinesiology collaborate to study how our brain changes as we age. Studies range from collaborations with community members to using novel imaging technologies.
Members of this group:
- Improved precision of brain imaging by combining three measurement techniques
- Used technology to improve accessibility in health and education, including the development of a hands-free wheelchair
- Found that practicing a diverse set of tasks may improve memory and learning
