As Assistant Director of the Memory and Aging Project, I am involved in the longitudinal study of healthy aging and dementing diseases employing clinical, psychometric, and other biomedical techniques. In addition, my research interests include attention, driving abilities and fine motor control in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and healthy aging.
