In this interview, Claudia Gonzalez, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Thompson Rivers University, shares how her research uses neuroimaging to study neurocognitive aging. #fNIRS plays a central role in this work. Using the Brite, her lab investigates brainโbehavior relationships across diverse populations, while also integrating other techniques such as eye tracking, #fMRI, and neurostimulation.

In a recent study, Lin et al. examined how gymnastics tasks with high versus low cognitive demands affect working memory performance and frontal brain activity in children.
๐ก High and low cognitive load #gymnastics tasks differently affected working memory
๐ต Frontal brain activity reflected changes in #cognitive demand
๐ก The wearable Brite #fNIRS device enabled reliable frontal measurements during active, child-friendly tasks

A recent study by Zhao et al. used #fNIRS to measure prefrontal activation in pilots during a simulated flight. By comparing different flight scenarios, the researchers showed that the Brite system could successfully distinguish positive (eustress) from negative (distress) based on brain oxygenation patterns. This ability to monitor mental state in real time highlights the potential of fNIRS for applications in cognitive neuroscience research.
๐ง ๐ป Real patients, real applications: In Part 2, Dr. Bettina Sorger and Dr. Franziska Klein present how BCIs support communication for severely motor-impaired patients and neurofeedback in neurological and psychiatric care.

๐ Interested in muscle NIRS and HD-EMG as well? Join our paired workshop the day before, on March 12th.
In this exciting new study protocol, Zheng et al. aim to use #fNIRS (OctaMon) to monitor brain activity in real-time while children with ADHD engage in immersive VR-based neurofeedback training. By providing feedback based on prefrontal brain activation, children can learn to modulate their own neural responses.
