Dr. Marsiske’s research investigates the impact of cognitive aging on adults’ everyday functioning, with a particular emphasis on the development and evaluation of interventions (cognitive training, mental and physical exercise) to maintain and improve late life cognition. Dr. Marsiske is also strongly connected with the University of Florida’s Institute on Aging initiative, and has developed a number of initiatives for participant recruitment and retention into aging research. A strong secondary interest is in the identification of late-life cognitive health disparities and strategies to reduce such disparities for ethnic/minority adults.
