Her dissertation focused on functional neuroimaging studies of working memory and long-term memory formation under the mentorship of Prof. Chantal Stern. She then continued her work with Prof. Stern as a Postdoc. In 2010 she received a Pathway to Independence Career Development Award from the National Institute on Aging to investigate the effects or cardio-respiratory fitness and exercise on the function and structure of the medial temporal hippocampal memory system, and since then has expanded her research to focus on chronic stress.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Schon\u2019s research interests are centered on brain plasticity and modulators of the medial temporal hippocampal and prefrontal systems in humans across the lifespan. Currently, her research focuses on the role of aging, chronic psychosocial and physiological stress, physical activity and cardio-respiratory fitness as modulators of cognitive function and brain integrity across the lifespan. She uses functional and structural MRI, biomarker assays, surveys, neuropsychological assessments, and exercise physiology methods.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bu.edu\/articles\/2016\/alzheimers-research-karin-schon\">here<\/a> to read a BU Today feature from April 2016 about Dr. Schon\u2019s research on exercise and brain function in aging.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lab:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/sites.bu.edu\/brainplasticity\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"standard\"><span>Brain Plasticity and Neuroimaging Laboratory<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>CV:<\/strong><span>&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"\/anatneuro\/files\/2023\/10\/Schon_BU-CAMed-CV-08-03-2023_annotated.pdf\">Karin Schon, PhD\u2013 CV<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n<div class=\"block-pad\">\n<div class=\"block\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">RESEARCH:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">medial temporal hippocampal system in humans;
