Memory node

The memory node investigates cognitive control in working memory and declarative long-term memory. Node leader is Lars Nyberg (Umeå). The main research areas are behavioral and neural correlates of memory retrieval and memory training. The main method used to investigate different aspects of memory is fMRI, a magnetic resonance technique that measure blood oxygen levels during performance of e.g., cognitive tasks. Lars Bäckman (KI) and L-G Nilsson (Stockholm University) are connected to the memory node.
