معرفی
Sanna Lensu is a Senior Researcher at the Department of Psychology, University of Jyväskylä, Finland, affiliated with the Faculty of Education and Psychology. Her work bridges neuroscience and health sciences, focusing on how physical activity impacts brain function, memory, and neurogenesis. She is currently involved in a Research Council of Finland-funded project (2023–2027) studying hippocampal neurophysiology and memory consolidation during sleep, alongside Prof. Miriam Nokia and Prof. Olli Gröhn.
- Research Focus: Neurobiology of physical activity, brain-metabolism interactions, and gut microbiota's role in cognitive health.
- Methods: Deep brain electrophysiology, in vivo MRI, fluorescent indicators, and viral vector techniques for cellular imaging.
Her recent publications highlight collaborations across neurosciences, exercise physiology, and metabolomics. While no awards are listed, her work spans projects on brain plasticity, metabolic disorders, and the molecular mechanisms of exercise benefits.
