Simon Evans

Simon is a postdoctoral research fellow currently working on a BBSRC-funded project investigating effects of the APOE e4 gene in healthy young adults. The project includes cognitive testing across a variety of attention and memory tasks, some of which are done while in the MRI scanner. MRI can be used to assess which brain regions are active during these tasks, it can also tell us whether the APOE gene affects brain structure.
