DOMAINES DE RECHERCHE

EXERCICE
We explore how to design novel and more effective exercise interventions to improve mobility and cognition for healthy and clinical populations, including people with stroke, Parkinson's disease, and cognitive deficits.

NEUROPLASTICITÉ
We investigate the mechanisms of neuroplasticity underlying changes in cognitive and motor function in response to aging, disease, and exercise. We use non-invasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging techniques such as TMS and EEG.

NEUROREHAB
We combine different interventions (e.g. exercise) and techniques (e.g. non-invasive brain stimulation) to design treatments for people that need to recover after stroke or need to slow down their physical and cognitive deterioration.

VIEILLISSEMENT
We study the mechanisms that underlie age-related memory loss. To this end, we use behavioral interventions and non-invasive brain stimulation to understand why, as we age, we experience problems to remember different types of information.

SLEEP
We combine different interventions (e.g. exercise) to improve sleep quality and architecture in people with poor sleep quality. We also investigate synergies between sleep, sleep deprivation, sleep architecture, neuroplasticity and memory.

New study strengthens the link between exercise and memory
“We know that exercise works, but we don’t know which variables of exercise make the exercise more effective,” said Marc Roig, a Physical and Occupational Therapy Professor at McGill University who studies the effect of exercise on cognition and was not involved with the study. “We believe intensity is one of those factors”. – New York Times
