Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Megan D. Jones's research has focused on cognitive function and interventions for individuals at risk of cognitive decline, particularly in the context of Alzheimer's disease. She has investigated the impact of various factors on cognitive performance, including dietary supplements and digital assessments. Her work includes the protocol development for a randomized controlled trial examining a digital, cognitive, multi-domain intervention for Alzheimer's risk, as well as the validation of a novel digital digit-symbol substitution test to measure processing speed in adults at risk for Alzheimer's disease.
Jones also has research experience in other areas, including the effect of dietary nitrate supplementation on athletic performance and body composition, and the impact of red spinach extract on physical performance, muscle oxygenation, and cognitive function in resistance-trained males. Her earlier work touched upon homocysteine as a risk factor for cognitive impairment in stroke patients and the electrical excitability of skeletal muscle in animal models.
She has a substantial publication record with 75 total publications and a h-index of 9, with 257 total citations. Jones has been a Co-Principal Investigator on a $2,000,000 NSF grant focused on datacenter optimization through whole-stack novel accounting, design, reuse, and heterogeneous provisioning of chiplets. She collaborates extensively with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Anthony Campitelli and Michelle Gray.
