Identifying biomarkers that predict current and future cognition may improve estimates of Alzheimer’s disease risk among cognitively unimpaired older adults (CU). In vivo measures of amyloid and tau protein burden and task-based functional MRI measures of core memory mechanisms, such as the strength of cortical reinstatement during remembering, have each been linked to individual differences in memory in CU. This study assesses whether combining CSF biomarkers with fMRI indices of cortical reinstatement improves estimation of memory function in CU, assayed using three unique tests of hippocamp
