Maria Pia Campagna, PhD was awarded a 2026 McKnight Next Generation Research Grant in Cognitive Aging and Age-Related Memory Loss. Dr. Campagna will investigate the connections between early menopause (such as when it is surgically induced), hormone therapy, and increased risk of dementia. Among other benefits, her work could lead to more accurate and customized recommendations for hormone therapy that reduce dementia risk. This research is funded by the McKnight Brain Research Foundation.
