Assistant Professor
Research Group Leader “Cognitive Health and Well-Being across the Life Course

Research Topics

  • Interdisciplinary perspective for studying healthy aging (e.g., including psychological, sociological, economical, and demographic angles)
  • Active aging (e.g., intellectual, physical, social, and cultural leisure activities and their role for maintaining cognitive health and well-being in later life)
  • Cognitive stimulation during the lifespan and cognitive health in later life (e.g., the role of education, occupation, leisure engagement, and lifelong learning for preserving cognitive functioning in old age)
  • Inter-individual differences and life course context factors of healthy aging (e.g., individual life trajectories, gender differences, and socio-economic conditions)
  • Aging workforce (e.g., cognition, personal resources, work ability, and health of older workers)
  • Cognitive development across the lifespan (e.g., prospective memory, working memory, long-term memory, and executive functions)
