Learning new memories across life
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how people of different ages learn and remember new information. You will do memory tasks to help researchers understand how memory changes over a lifetime.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can read and speak French fluently.
- You are not currently under guardianship or legal protection.
- You have no major memory or thinking problems (a quick memory test will be done at the start).
- You agree to take part in the study.
Quick eligibility check

This study uses brain scans to understand how older adults (65-80) and younger adults (18-30) learn and generalize information. It may help explain memory changes with age.
This study looks at how people with memory loss (amnesia) from brain injuries learn new information. It uses MRI scans to understand the brain's learning process, which may help develop better support for memory challenges.
This study creates a practical tool to measure “episodic memory,” which is your ability to recall events from daily life. It includes adults age 70+ with different memory levels, to see how well the tool works for people with dementia and for those without.
This study looks at how brain waves (EEG) change during normal aging and early Alzheimer's disease. It compares three groups: people with early-stage Alzheimer's, healthy older adults, and healthy young adults. The goal is to understand how memory and thinking problems relate to slow brain wave activity.
This study looks at how thinking and learning processes change with age, especially around deciding what to trust. You may be asked to complete computer tasks and brief memory/thinking tests to understand these changes.
This study uses brain scans and simple tasks to explore how young and older adults perceive time. It aims to uncover the mental and brain processes behind our sense of time.
