Our research group focuses on the understanding of the Interplay of lifelong cardiovascular and psychosocial factors in resilience to achieve healthy brain aging and mental well-being.
Our group focuses on the complex relationships of lifelong cardiovascular health, psychosocial health, and genetic susceptibility with brain aging, physical function, cognitive health, and transmission of cognitive states in old age. Special attention is given to translational research that aims to identify effective interventions to achieve a longer and healthier life.
I lead a small group investigating the role of compensatory factors mitigating the impact of aging and disease on physical and cognitive outcomes. We are also interested in epidemiology of old-age depression.
