Upcoming Events:

ISL Brown Bag Talk by Dr. Molly Hermiller at 12 PM on November 3rd: “Stimulating Age-Related Dedifferentiation in Memory Networks"

Date/Time: November 3rd, 12:00 PM

Venue: Innovation Hub, Room 112, and Zoom

Healthy aging is accompanied by changes in how large-scale brain networks are organized. Networks that are relatively distinct and specialized in younger adulthood can become less differentiated with age, including brain systems that support episodic memory.

In this talk, Dr. Hermiller will discuss her work examining whether noninvasive brain stimulation can be used to modify these age-vulnerable memory networks. In particular, she will focus on transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) approaches that target hippocampal–cortical brain networks and ask whether stimulation can increase network specificity, alter functional connectivity, and ultimately support memory.

She will also discuss ongoing work aimed at understanding when age-related dedifferentiation reflects a source of memory decline, and when it may instead reflect adaptive changes in how the aging brain supports cognition.
