Lecture series “Between the ears”: Personality and Health and Cognition with Aging

On August 30 at 10.30, Associate Professor Yannick Stephan from the University of Montpellier (France) will give a lecture on “Personality and Health and Cognition with Aging” as part of the “Between the Ears” lecture series.

The lecture will be held in English, in room 121, Näituse 2, Tartu. All interested parties are welcome.

As an introduction to the lecture, Mr. Stephan says the following:

This presentation aims to summarize our research on the (reciprocal) relationships between personality and health and cognition in old age. Specifically, the implications of personality for markers of biological health, physical and cognitive functions, as well as recent findings on the potential mechanisms explaining these associations will be reviewed. In addition, the extent to which these factors are related to personality development will be examined.
