Understanding and Ameliorating Age- and Dementia-Related Decline in Prospection [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Mr Adam Bulley (Principal investigator)

Brief description Memory for past events deteriorates in both dementia and healthy aging. Mounting research reveals that the ability to imagine, plan, and prepare for the future – “prospection” – also declines, with potentially severe implications for functional everyday activities. This research will uncover the changes that lead to prospection decline, link this decline to everyday impairment, and develop a new intervention to improve prospection abilities, quality of life, and wellbeing in aging and dementia.
