Biography
Megan Lenehan is a PhD student from the University of Tasmania. Megan's honours project, which investigated the utility of subjective memory complaints in Mild Cognitive Impairment subtypes, was published in a 2012 edition of International Psychogeriatrics. Currently Megan is conducting research examining whether education in later-life moderates the trajectory of normal age-related cognitive decline in the areas of attention, processing speed and episodic memory.
