Functional near-infrared spectroscopy reveals the compensatory potential of pre-frontal cortical activity for standing balance in young and older adults

RJ St George, MR Hinder, R Puri, E Walker… - Neuroscience, 2021 - Elsevier
Recent evidence suggests increased activity of the pre-frontal cortex (PFC) is associated
with sensorimotor disturbances of standing balance. Here we manipulate sensorimotor …

Group differences in anterior hippocampal volume and in the retrieval of spatial and temporal context memory in healthy young versus older adults

MN Rajah, M Kromas, JE Han, JC Pruessner - Neuropsychologia, 2010 - Elsevier
