<font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><span lang="EN-CA" style="color:black">Our lab is located at the Douglas Research Centre, McGill University. We are a diverse, open-minded, and motivated group of individuals who thrive on working collaboratively in a supportive
environment. Research in our lab uses behavioral and neuroimaging (primarily MRI) methods to study how aging, biological sex, gender, and reserve factors affect brain aging and episodic memory across the adult lifespan. We study adults aged 18 – 80 years of
age with and without risk factors for late onset sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease. Our current main project focuses on brain aging and cognition at midlife, with a focus on understanding women’s brain health at menopause. To learn more about the lab please visit
