Other research includes studies investigating the cognitive neuroscience of memory, and other fundamental cognitive processes. == History ==
Founded in 2010 by Dr. Denise Park,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dallasnews.com/news/community-news/dallas/headlines/20100913-UTD-brain-center-unveiled-2413.ece )〕 the current director of research, the Center was joined by current director Dr. Michael D. Rugg〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dallasnews.com/business/columnists/robert-miller/20140416-utd-professor-explains-how-the-human-brain-changes-with-age.ece )〕 in 2011. Both Drs. Park and Rugg are fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the Association for Psychological Science and hold distinguished chairs in the UT Dallas School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences. Six full-time faculty belong to the Center, with each faculty member leading a research group comprising a mixture of postdoctoral fellows, graduate students and research assistants. Center researchers are supported by several competitively reviewed research grants. These grants fund recently completed and ongoing research programs. Among these are the “Synapse Project,” led by Dr. Park, which tested the hypothesis that leading an engaged lifestyle facilitates brain health and may slow down the process of normal cognitive aging, as well as two large-scale studies examining brain structure and function across the course of a healthy lifespan. Center investigators maintain affiliations and research collaborations with local, national, and international universities including UT Southwestern Medical Center, UT Arlington, University of Illinois, University of Michigan, University of Pennsylvania, Duke National University of Singapore, and University College London.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://vitallongevity.utdallas.edu/about/at-a-glance )〕 Research articles by Center scientists have appeared in such peer-reviewed scientific journals as Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Neuron (journal), Nature Neuroscience, Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Journal of Neuroscience, and Neuropsychologia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://vitallongevity.utdallas.edu/about/at-a-glance )〕
