PhD Thesis: My PhD project is about long-term effects of bilingualism on ageing brain. The project utilises the Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience (Cam-CAN) datasets accessed through Dementias Platform UK (DPUK). The neuroimaging data, especially the resting-state MEG data will be analysed, combining with demographic information of participants to solve the research questions.

Areas of interest: Psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics, Bilingualism, Brain Ageing
