Research Objectives
Dr. Rose's research is focused on understanding the basis for age-related
impairments in learning and memory. Rats and mice are used in
behavioral paradigms to explore different memory systems, with a particular
focus on the hippocampus. In addition to studying the effects
of normal aging, models of diabetes and Alzheimer's disease are being
examined. The ultimate goal is to develop therapies to treat memory
disorders.
