\n Carleton Experts Available: Alzheimer\u2019s Awareness Month\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

January is Alzheimer\u2019s Awareness Month and Carleton experts are available to discuss related topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew Holahan<\/strong>
\nProfessor, Department of Neuroscience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phone<\/strong>: 613-520-2600, ext. 1543
\nEmail<\/strong>: Matthew.Holahan@carleton.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holahan\u2019s research interests include learning and memory, development, neurodegeneration, psychopharmacology, toxicology and concussions. The Holahan Lab\u2019s current research includes the effects of low doses of phthalates on hippocampal development; pre-clinical models of Parkinson\u2019s disease and novel treatments; the role of nucleus accumbens and deficits in behavioral inhibition; remote spatial memories during the juvenile period and how glutamate receptor blockade during development can effect spatial memories; as well as concussion research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holahan has taught the course Neurodegeneration and Aging, which includes the topic of Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bruce Wallace
\n<\/strong>Adjunct Professor, Department of Systems and Computer Engineering<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phone<\/strong>: 613-520-2600, ext. 4260
\nEmail<\/strong>: Wally@sce.carleton.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wallace is the executive director of the Sensors and Analytics for Monitoring Mobility and Memory (SAM3<\/sup>) hub, which conducts innovative research on the application of technology-based solutions to enable an aging population to maintain a healthy and independent lifestyle. SAM3<\/sup>\u2019s work on technology solutions related to memory will contribute to assisting individuals with dementia, including those with Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wallace\u2019s research expertise includes biomedical engineering; bioinstrumentation; biomedical applications of sensors and systems; cognition measurement; assisted living; and the challenges of aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amedeo D\u2019Angiulli<\/strong>
\nProfessor, Department of Neuroscience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phone<\/strong>: 613-520-2600, ext. 2954
\nEmail<\/strong>: Amedeo.Dangiulli@carleton.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u2019Angiulli\u2019s interdisciplinary research includes cognitive neuropsychology, developmental science, sociology of education and educational psychology, among other topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u2019Angiulli is available to discuss his research on neuro-inflammation and developmental environmental neurotoxicology, in particular air pollution and its role in Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
