Jessica Bernard is an Associate Professor at Texas A&M University. The focus of her research is understanding how the brain changes over the course of aging, with a specific focus on a region called the cerebellum and the way that it interacts and communicates with the rest of the cortex.

These new findings bring about important yet unanswered questions: What do these brain changes following COVID-19 mean for the process and pace of aging? And, over time does the brain recover to some extent from viral infection?
