معرفی
Jonas Persson is a Professor at the Department of Behavioral, Social and Legal Sciences, School of Behavioural, Social and Legal Sciences, Örebro University. He leads research in cognitive neuroscience with a focus on aging, working memory, and brain plasticity. His work includes studies on developmental dyslexia, probiotics' neural effects, and the interplay between insomnia, pain, and mood in adolescents. Persson is affiliated with the LEADER Center for Lifespan Developmental Research and contributes to projects like the IDA program on brain aging mechanisms.
- Research environments: LEADER Center, Cognitive Medicine Biomarkers group
- Key projects: Probiotic efficacy on brain function, predictors of cognitive aging, implicit sequence learning in dyslexia
His research integrates neuroimaging (fMRI, MRI), genetics, and behavioral studies to explore age-related cognitive changes. Recent findings highlight hippocampal GABA/glutamate roles in working memory and structural brain changes linked to probiotic interventions. Persson collaborates internationally across psychology, neuroscience, and clinical domains.
Publications emphasize longitudinal studies on memory mechanisms, neural correlates of interference control, and the impact of iron deposition on aging brains. His work bridges basic research and clinical applications, particularly in aging populations and neurodevelopmental disorders.
