Creator:: Brim, Brenna L.
Abstract:: As the aging population continues to grow worldwide, age-related complications are becoming more apparent within the aging population. One of the first age-related complications to become apparent is age-associated memory impairment and it can make the elderly more dependent on caregivers early on. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is important to...

Creator:: Reynolds-Lallement, Nadjalisse C.
Abstract:: This study applied a virtual rendition of the Morris water maze, which is commonly used for assessing spatial memory in rodents, to an examination of age-related differences in spatial learning among 42 younger (18-30 years) and older (>60 years) male human participants. Virtual Morris water maze performance was measured by...

Creator:: Mollusky, Adina J.
Abstract:: This study applied a virtual version of the Morris water maze (vMWM) task to an examination of age-related differences between younger and older participants, and the impact of prior military service in older men on spatial memory and cognitive flexibility. Participants performed the Logical Memory task that included immediate and...
