Aging and Neurocognition Lab (AANCL)

Research Goals

Research at the Aging and Neurocognition Lab (AANCL) has two overarching goals:

  • To understand how age and age-related conditions (e.g., mild cognitive impairment (MCI); Alzheimer’s disease dementia; age-associated hearing loss) impact higher-order cognitive functions (e.g., semantic processing; executive function)
  • To develop cognitive and social engagement approaches to enhance and maintain brain health in older adults
