Insulin signaling, mitochondrial DNA copy number regulation and aging in Caenorhabditis elegans
DownloadFall 2010
Mitochondrial dysfunction is considered as a key mechanism of aging but little is known about the impact of mitochondrial biogenesis. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number control is an important aspect of mitochondrial biogenesis and is highly regulated in eukaryotic organisms. By studying mtDNA...

Integrating Characteristics of Executive Functions in Non-Demented Aging: Structure, Trajectories, Classification, and Biomarker Predictors
DownloadSpring 2019
In aging, executive function (EF) performance (level) and change (trajectory) are linked to multiple interacting risk factors. Structurally, EFs have previously been represented as either a unitary (e.g., unidimensional) or diverse (e.g., multidimensional) set of abilities that change across the...

Investigating Human Brain Function and Human Brain Organization Using Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging at 4.7 T
DownloadFall 2020
Understanding the brain-cognition association has been a major goal of neuroscientists for more than 50 years. The discovery of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast by Ogawa and colleagues (1990, 1992) has fundamentally transformed the field of...
