A major focus in the Cognitive Aging Lab is the Virginia Cognitive Aging Project (VCAP). This is currently one of the largest active longitudinal studies of aging involving comprehensive cognitive assessments in adults ranging from 18 to 99 years of age in the world. Over 5,000 adults have participated in our three-session (6-8 hours) assessment at least once,...
