Testing white matter pathway’s influence on neural communication: A combined structural and functional neuroimaging study

Ms. Decker will test the hypothesis that myelin damage impairs episodic memory by disrupting neural communication between two memory relevant brain regions, namely, the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. Accordingly, she will examine neural synchrony, (a measure of neural communication), during an associative encoding and retrieval task in pediatric brain tumor survivors (PBTS) and age-matched healthy controls.
