An investigation into the neural substrates of cognitive deficits in Mild Cognitive Impairment, and the mechanisms of action of a novel treatment

进一步了解轻度认知障碍导致的记忆、执行功能和语言缺陷的大脑机制，对于概念化潜在的疾病过程和开发有针对性的治疗至关重要。因此，该项目将在专门的认知任务期间对大脑的电和代谢反应进行全面评估，同时研究可能的治疗方法。

Furthering our understanding of the brain mechanisms that underlie the deficits in memory, executive function, and language that occur with Mild Cognitive Impairment is vital for conceptualising the underlying disease processes, and for the development of targeted treatments. Hence, this project will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the brain’s electrical and metabolic responses during specialised cognitive tasks, whilst simultaneously investigating a possible treatment.
