Description

Total Body Neuroscience . This Fellowship aims to create foundational new knowledge about how the brain and body interact to drive cognition in young and older adulthood. To do this, a new sub-field of neuroscience will be developed, total body neuroscience, enabled by two breakthrough innovations in biomedical imaging. The outcomes will be a paradigm shift in the understanding of how cognition emerges from the brain across the lifespan, and a new technical framework for measuring brain and body interactions. This Fellowship will provide significant benefits by identifying mechanisms that can be developed in the future to help Australians maintain their cognitive function and quality of life into advanced age.. Scheme: ARC Future Fellowships. Field: 5202 - Biological Psychology. Lead: A/Prof Sharna Jamadar
