Researchers in this cluster focus on the pathophysiology associated with brain conditions such as dementia, head injury/concussion and stroke. More specific projects focus on areas such as the consequences of concussions on the aging brain and on pharmacological and stem cell interventions to reduce or reverse damage to the brain.

Original: @AIGMcLennan, @LouiseCastiillo & @DrThomasHadjist compared tools assessing pain in people with dementia to tools developed for a different population
— All tools showed satisfactory psychometric properties
FREE:
Lab HQP @AIGMcLennan presenting some of his research results at #CAG_2024 @cagacg supporting the idea that lay people (e.g., informal caregivers) may be able to use observational pain assessment tools for people with dementia under professional guidance
HQP @KylieArsenault1 presenting the work she conducted through our lab on the relationship among #pain #ageism and Covid-related stress at #CAG_2024 @cagacg @gjgasmundson
Congratulations to lab HQP @LaneyYarycky for presenting the results of her meta-analysis on #pain #self-management programs for older adults at #CAG_2024 @cagacg
