This project aims to determine the involvement of parietal brain regions for episodic memory. Using novel experimental tasks and multimodal neuroimaging techniques in young and healthy aging, this project expects to clarify the role of posterior parietal structures, and their interactions with core memory structures, during memory retrieval. Expected outcomes include advanced understanding of how we remember the past in rich contextual detail, and how such processes are altered in healthy aging. This potentially provides significant benefits in predicting and treating memory dysfunction due to brain injury or neurodegeneration.

该项目旨在确定顶叶脑区域对情景记忆的参与。该项目在年轻和健康的老龄化过程中使用新颖的实验任务和多模态神经影像技术，希望阐明后顶叶结构在记忆检索过程中的作用及其与核心记忆结构的相互作用。预期成果包括深入了解我们如何在丰富的背景细节中记住过去，以及这些过程在健康老龄化过程中如何改变。这可能为预测和治疗由于脑损伤或神经退行性变引起的记忆功能障碍提供显着的益处。
