ProfileMy research concentrates on health promotion and prevention in aging. Currently, I am a co-PI on two studies funded by the National Institute of Aging (NIA): the National Study of Daily Experiences (NSDE; https://sites.psu.edu/nsde) and Preventing Alzheimer’s with Cognitive Training (PACT; PACTstudy.org). For NSDE, my primary research interests relate to predictors of daily prospective and retrospective memory lapses. For PACT, my primary research interest is in motivation to participate in clinical trials and intervention acceptability. I accept undergraduate students to my Creative Inquiry team on a rolling basis. I am not currently accepting graduate students for the 2026 application cycle. | |
