Blocktalk Monicque Lorist

The third Blocktalk & Blockborrel organized by the Psychology Department and Mindwise is coming on the 19th of June!

We welcome Monicque Lorist , who will talk about the interactions between ageing and cognition. She will describe how MRI scans allow us to see that the 'hardware' that is in the structure of the brain changes with age, but that the extent to which these changes have a real impact in every-day functioning remains elusive. The better we understand how the brain changes and adapts with age, the better we can provide new ways to curb age-related decline.

Monicque’s talk will start at 16:00 in the Kouwerzaal and will be followed by the opportunity to ask questions or discuss the topic further. Afterwards, at 17:00 , there is a borrel in the Orangerie (the new canteen on Grote Rozenstraat 19) with drinks .

We hope to see you all on June 19th!

Cheers, The organizers of the Blocktalk & Blockborrel
