Now recruiting master's students for Fall 2025!
Jonathan Drucker from ANT Neuro was in town & hung out with us in the lab - we had a blast & it was so cool to see fNIRS changes to playing music in real time! Thanks Jonathan for bringing the EEG setup (which Tyler is wearing) and helping us set up a hyper-scanning experiment with our fNIRS!

If you missed the Aging in the City panel organized by Dean Carol Payne, please feel free to watch it here. I talked about cognitive reserve and bilingualism, Dr. Kathleen Van Benthem talked about expertise in pilots and drivers, and Dr. Bruce Wallace talked about using smart home technology to support patients and caregivers with dementia. The event was moderated by Dr. Chris Herdman who provided a wonderful overall introduction and helped the entire event run smoothly.
