I have previously worked with CAIN during a Vacation Scholarship, conducting a scoping review to investigate what makes a 'Dementia Friendly Community'. My Honours research project is investigating dementia risk factor knowledge in the general Australian population and how/why this knowledge has been obtained. The aim of this research is to add to the current literature in measuring what knowledge Australian's hold regarding dementia risk factors and extending it by investigating how and why people develop their knowledge of dementia risk factors.

I completed my Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours) at the University of Adelaide, during which I investigated the relationships between cognitive reserve, cognitive ability and neuroplasticity in older adults. I also have a background in both physical and mental healthcare, through employment as an Orderly at the Royal Adelaide Hospital and volunteering experience as a Case Worker with Drug ARM.

The projects that I am currently involved with at CAIN are concerned with identifying predictors of delirium and cognitive decline in older adults following cardiovascular surgery, in addition to interventions which may reduce the incidence of cognitive impairment following these procedures.

I am a third-year cognitive neuroscience student currently undertaking a placement at the CAIN lab. For future honours and post-graduate studies, I am interested in designing and implementing neurorehabilitative interventions for cognitively impaired individuals.

I completed my BSc in Physics at the University of Baja California and MSc in Cognitive Neurosciences at Kyushu University, where I did research related to working memory, neurofeedback and the influence of environment in our health. My research interests include the use of data to design technology and interventions that promote behavior change and enhance health. Recently I joined the CAIN lab as a research assistant.

Having completed a vacation research scholarship with CAIN at the end of the third year of my BPsych (Hons) degree, I have continued to work as a Research Assistant. The study I am currently assisting in investigates reducing apathy in aged care through reminiscence therapy and virtual reality. Being new to CAIN, I look forward to broadening my research experiences.

I completed my Honours in Psychology (Cognitive Neuroscience) last year within the CAIN lab, under the supervision of A/Prof Hannah Keage and Dr Louise Lavrencic. I also previously completed a Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science (Nuclear Medicine). This year I am working as a Research Assistant for CAIN. The two projects I am involved in are looking at cognitive outcomes in older adults following cardiovascular surgery.

I completed my Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) with the CAIN Lab in 2018. I now work as a research assistant across various projects. Most of my work is focused on two clinical trials at CAIN which investigate cognition in older adults who undergo cardiovascular procedures. These trials focus on predictors of as well as interventions to reduce incidence of adverse cognitive outcomes (namely cognitive decline and delirium). My other time at CAIN is usually spent on systematic reviews and meta-analyses which span several topics. Current meta-analyses focus on mood outcomes in ICD patients and predictors of delirium motor subtypes. I have a general interest in research and a passion for data analysis (love all things R, check out my GitHub for examples of previous analyses: https://github.com/ericaghezzi). Outside of CAIN I also work as a Research Officer at the National Disability and Insurance Agency, where I work on evidence syntheses (essentially more reviews and meta-analyses) within the disability sector. See https://linktr.ee/ericaghezzi for more info.

I am currently a third year Psychology (Honours) student at UniSA. I have chosen to partake in an elective course this semester called Psychology Research Experience, this has allowed me the exciting opportunity to complete a placement within the CAIN group with Dr Keage as supervisor. I will likely be involved in a follow-up study of social cognition in older adults.

I am undertaking my third year in the Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) program and volunteer as a research intern in the CAIN laboratory. I am currently involved as a second reviewer on an Honours project about the relationship between dopaminergic medication and cognition in Parkinson's disease.

I am a research assistant and I have the privilege of working across a range of projects. Such projects have included investigating cognitive outcomes in older adults following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) surgery and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) procedures, exploring the effect of virtual reality table tennis practice on real world table tennis performance, and also looking into changes in social cognition and awareness in older adults. I spend much of my time at CAIN working on systematic reviews and meta-analyses regarding a range of topics, such as risk factors associated with cognitive decline and delirium following CABG. I have also been involved in undertaking reviews for the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety at Flinders University, investigating innovative models of aged care implemented in Australia and internationally for a range of subgroups (e.g. homeless, LGBTI, CALD, ATSI).

My research interests are broad, spanning the areas of sustainable behaviour, environmental psychology, youth mental health and public health. I am also currently undertaking study to become an Occupational Therapist and I hope to work with both young people with a disability and older adults in the future.

I recently completed a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) and I am currently undertaking a Vacation Research Scholarship under the supervision of Dr Keage. My project is concerned with exploring the relationship between cognitive reserve and performance on an old-new memory task, as assessed using both behavioural (accuracy) and electrophysiological (EEG) measures. This project makes use of data previously collected by CAIN Lab alumna Louise Lavrencic.
