Research Interest
His research program aims to better understand the nature of cognitive decline in various neurodegenerative diseases of the brain and the brain changes associated with this decline. I have expertise in Alzheimer's disease and atypical forms of dementia (progressive primary aphasia, posterior cortical atrophy, frontotemporal dementia). I am also interested in cognitive decline in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), as well as cognitive changes associated with normal aging and the factors that modulate them (cognitive reserve, amyloid load, vascular burden). Here are some of my research topics: Lexical and Semantic Disorders in Alzheimer's Disease and Semantic Dementia Face recognition disorders in dementia and acquired pathologies Brain changes related to normal and pathological aging related to cognition using different neuroimaging methods (PIB-PET, MRI, MEG) Cognitive intervention in elderly people with cognitive impairment
