Delirium is a neurocognitive disorder that can lead to significant cognitive and functional decline, increased dementia risk, and death. Delirium is theorised to be a disorder of functional brain disintegration, but little is known about neural vulnerability to delirium. My PhD aims to characterise neural vulnerability to delirium using EEG and ERPs in older adults undergoing cardiac procedures.
