Functional impact of high fat and high sugar diets on memory encoding

该项目旨在确定脂肪和糖如何影响对学习和记忆至关重要的神经元过程的功能机制。预期结果将定义情绪和空间记忆编码中认知变化的神经机制，以及这些变化与大脑和代谢参数的关系。这将通过揭示饮食脂肪和糖对大脑的可能后果以及神经可塑性增强干预的机制提供益处。

This project aims to determine the functional mechanisms of how fats and sugar affect neuronal processes vital for learning and memory. Expected outcomes will define the neural mechanisms underpinning cognitive changes in emotional and spatial memory encoding, and how these relate to brain and metabolic parameters. This will provide benefits by unveiling the possible consequences of dietary fat and sugar on the brain, and the mechanisms of neuroplasticity enhancing interventions.
