I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging lab. My research focusses on neural networks of visual working memory in relation to aging. Using functional brain imaging studies, I examine age differences in functional connectivity during different stages of working memory. Understanding how memory function and related neural processes change with age is of vital importance with an aging population.

I'm a new PhD student at Brock University and joined the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging lab to investigate the impact of lifestyle and demographic variables on brain function and cognitive health during the aging process. Understanding how age-related changes in the brain can be influenced by daily life is important for the development of future interventions for cognitive reserve formation, neurodegeneration prevention and achievement of healthy aging. I'm very excited to get deep into my studies and bring collaborations to these discoveries.

I’m a PhD-candidate in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging lab. Recently, my research has focused on the neurocognitive mechanisms that underlie episodic simulation of future events. More specifically, I am interested in teasing apart the use of episodic and semantic memory in simulating potential future events. I hope that by exploring the neurocognitive mechanisms that give rise to these processes I can gain a better understanding of how the biology of the brain gives rise to the wonders of the mind.

I am currently a Ph.D. student in Dr. Campbell's lab. My research focus is on how age-related changes in attentional control influence long-term and visual working memory. Further, I am interested in using tools such as eye-tracking, EEG, and fMRI to explore the neural underpinnings of these cognitive processes. In the future, I am interested in exploring lifestyle factors, such as exercise, that may attenuate age-related cognitive changes.

I am a PhD student in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab. I completed my undergraduate thesis and Masters work at Brock University with Dr. Campbell. I am interested in using EEG to investigate how age-related differences in executive processes (such as attentional control) influence memory performance across the lifespan. In my current work, I aim to apply methods that might more closely approximate everyday experiences to help us better understand the factors that contribute to healthy aging.

I am a graduate student under joint supervision of Professor Karen Campbell and Professor Stephen Emrich. I completed my undergraduate degree in Biology for Health Sciences and Psychology at U of T. My main interest is studying the age-related changes in the efficiency of memory and attention, and how these changes may be reflected in neural mechanisms. Through my research, I hope to get a better understanding of healthy aging and potential interventions to increase the efficiency of cognitive processes, especially in old age.

Megan FazekasI am currently in my fourth year at Brock University in the Honours Undergraduate Degree Program of Psychology. To complete my thesis, I will be working under the supervision of Dr. Campbell and Alison O’Connor. My research interests include understanding the age related differences of implicit and explicit attitudes towards people of different races in court. I am excited to work within this lab and gain experience conducting research relating to the legal system.

EDYTA HOUSHANG TEHRANII am currently in the fourth year of my Honours Undergraduate Degree Program in Psychology here at Brock University. I joined the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab as one of the research assistants two years ago in order to gain more experience in the area of research as I work towards my goal of graduate studies later on. This academic year, I will be completing Honours Thesis under Dr. Campbell's supervision. My interests in Psychology are very wide and neurocognitive functioning across the lifespan is one of them. I feel very thankful and honoured to work together with such a great team.

I am currently in my fourth year of psychology here at Brock. I have had the excellent opportunity to work with the team at Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab for the past three years, assisting in a variety of aging research projects. I am very excited to be continuing my work here as a thesis student. I will be studying the effect that novel scenarios have on our ability to accurately generate scene imagery across the lifespan. I look forward to carrying this experience into my graduate studies in the near future.

Luke AtackI am an undergraduate student in the Psychology department at Brock. I am interested in neuropsychology regarding how our physiology and experience interact to produce our behaviours. I am very excited for a behind the scenes look at how Dr. Campbell and the other researchers in the CNA lab investigate issues regarding aging and memory. I’m hoping the knowledge and experiences I will gain working with the lab will prepare me for my thesis project the following year as well as for my future career path.

JULIA CERMINARAI recently completed my undergraduate degree in Public Health with a minor in Psychology and I will be continuing my education in Brock University’s Master of Applied Gerontology. I joined the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab as a volunteer research assistant because I want to gain aging related research experience. I am very thankful for this opportunity as it will help me in achieving my future career goal. I am looking forward to helping out in the lab and working with everyone.
|
Alec ChuntaI am currently in my third year of the medical sciences program here at Brock. I am very excited to join the Neurocognitive Aging lab as a research assistant to broaden my understanding of psychological concepts and brain function. This lab will give me a chance to gain research and personal experience that I can apply to future academic and social endeavors. I am looking forward to working in a cohesive group and gaining knowledge along the way!

Shannon PereiraI am currently working on an Honours degree in Psychology at Brock University. I am very grateful to be a part of the Neurocognitive lab, as it will give me first-hand experience in my field of study. I will be pursuing graduate studies and being a part of the lab will help me to develop skills that can be applied to my future studies. I am amazed by both of my grandparent’s ability to maintain an independent life at their age, and I look forward to learning more about how individual differences influence aging.

My name is Melody and I am currently a second year Psychology student at Brock. I have previously completed a Bachelor’s degree in Illustration at OCAD. I am looking to go into Clinical Psychology for the future. I am interested in the Neurocognitive process through aging and how the different cultures, races, backgrounds would contribute and effect this journey. I view this opportunity of becoming a research assistant in the Campbell Neurocognitive Lab as a way to get research experience, make connections with people and be more prepared for future.
