Cognitive ageing research examines the cognitive abilities that are preserved and/or those
that decline with advanced age. There is great individual variability in cognitive ageing …

Many cognitive abilities decline with age even in the absence of detectable pathology.
Recent evidence indicates that age-related neural dedifferentiation, operationalized in terms …

Quantitative susceptibility map** (QSM) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique
that can assess the magnetic properties of cerebral iron in vivo. Although brain iron is …

Many but not all cognitive abilities decline during ageing. Some even improve due to lifelong
experience. The critical capacities of attention and executive functions have been widely …

Abstract “The Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition (STAC)”, proposed in 2009, is a
conceptual model of cognitive aging that integrated evidence from structural and functional …

Studies supporting the notion that physical activity and exercise can help alleviate the
negative impact of age on the body and the mind abound. This literature review provides an …

The literature on large‐scale resting‐state functional brain networks across the adult
lifespan was systematically reviewed. Studies published between 1986 and July 2021 were …

Sleep is implicated in cognitive functioning in young adults. With increasing age, there are
substantial changes to sleep quantity and quality, including changes to slow-wave sleep …

Cognitive training in MCI may stimulate pre-existing neural reserves or recruit neural
circuitry as “compensatory scaffolding” prompting neuroplastic reorganization to meet task …

During moments involving selective attention, the thalamus orchestrates the preferential
processing of prioritized information by coordinating rhythmic neural activity within a …
