National (September) is underway.

Professor Liz Stine-Morrow, a researcher at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, studies the conditions and strategies that augment cognitive health and make us effective learners into later adulthood.

Her research topics include:

  • Interventions that promote cognitive resilience into late life.
  • Investigating how age-related change in cognition impacts language and text comprehension and how shifts in strategy with age can contribute to maintaining text memory.
  • Mechanisms underlying individual variation in literacy skill among adults.
