Acmelab brings cognition outside the lab. The Ageing, Cognition, Multisensory perception, and Environment laboratory is led by Dr. Annalisa Setti and Dr. Jason S. Chan. We are located in the School of Applied Psychology in University College Cork, Ireland. The ACME lab studies multisensory perception and cognition, with particular focus on healthy older adults, older people who exercise, fallers, and children who exercise or not. We also measure the characteristics of the lived environment which train our brain and support or hinder independent living when we get older. Using electroencephalography (EEG), we investigate the cortical dynamics between multisensory perception and the lived environment to improve the ageing brain. We collaborate with School of Clinical Therapies, UCC, with Waterford University Hospital, the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing, TCD, the School of Medicine UCC and the Department of Anatomy and Neuroscience our students and interns have backgrounds in Psychology, Neuroscience, Exercise Science and Physiotherapy. We also collaborate with Cork - Healthy Cities and with Wild Works (SECAD) on sustainable living that can support cognitive health.
