Abstract: Age-related neural dedifferentiation-a decline in the distinctiveness of neural representations in the aging brain-has been associated with age-related declines in cognitive abilities. But why does neural distinctiveness decline with age? Based on prior work in… read more here.

Abstract: Normal aging is associated with declines in sensorimotor function. Previous studies have linked age-related behavioral declines to decreases in neural differentiation (i.e., dedifferentiation), including decreases in the distinctiveness of neural activation patterns and in the… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundAging is often associated with behavioral impairments, but some people age more gracefully than others. Why? One factor that may play a role is individual differences in the distinctiveness of neural representations. Previous research has… read more here.
