TGen’s online cognitive study MindCrowd will be featured on an upcoming episode of STEM Journals on Sunday, September 21st at 7pm on Cox 7 or 1007.
MindCrowd is the first research project of its kind. Researchers hope that a million people worldwide will spend 10 minutes taking their online test. With the knowledge they glean from the results, scientists hope to gain a better understanding of the affect of aging on memory and use that information to help prevent diseases like Alzheimer’s.
MindCrowd is a collaborative effort among leading scientific research institutions and organizations including TGen, the University of Arizona and the Alzheimer’s Prevention Initiative.
