About

Francesca Farina is a Research Assistant Professor at Northwestern University in the United States. Her research focuses on Alzheimer’s disease, dementia prevention, and cognitive health in older adults. She has contributed to various studies examining the relationship between cognitive concerns, EEG oscillations, and lifestyle behaviors, as well as the impacts of psychological interventions on memory loss fears. Her recent work includes recommendations for clinical trials assessing EEG rhythms in Alzheimer’s and comparing neuroimaging techniques for diagnosing mild cognitive impairment.
