Anna Karlsson

Anna Karlsson is a Researcher at the Institute of Psychology within the Faculty of Life Sciences at Humboldt University of Berlin, affiliated with the Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging and Memory research group.

Her research centers on cognitive neuroscience with specific emphasis on aging and memory processes. This involves investigating neural mechanisms underlying memory function across the lifespan, particularly age-related changes in cognitive performance. Her work contributes to understanding neurocognitive aging trajectories and potential interventions for cognitive decline.

The Cognitive Neuroscience of Aging and Memory lab employs neuroimaging and behavioral methodologies to explore memory systems in diverse age populations. Current research focuses on episodic memory consolidation, working memory capacity in aging, and neural correlates of memory impairment in neurodegenerative conditions.
