About Me
Teresa is interested in neural mechanisms underlying cognition in older adults and patients with neurodegenerative diseases. Her goal is to study risk and protective factors that contribute towards neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, in hopes of enhancing or maintaining cognitive function and brain health in older adults. In her free time, she enjoys knitting and playing video games.
