    Our friends at the University of Georgia Institute of Gerontology are looking for people aged 65-115 years with memory problems, or a recent diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia. They are also looking for caregivers for people with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia for an at-home research study.

    Research Goals: 
    We are working with a local Georgia company (Cloud Mustang) to create new technology for helping people with memory loss communicate with their caregivers. In this study, you will:
    •   look at designs for the technology
    •   provide feedback on whether or not this technology would
    help you
    •   tell us how we can make it better.

    Possible Risks and Discomfort:
    Cognition testing for people with memory loss can be frustrating.
    No risks are expected.

    Incentives:
    Because of the need to socially distance during COVID19, testing will be conducted over the internet. Participants will receive $25 per video call, two calls required.

    To participate: 
    Contact the UGA Institute of Gerontology at (706) 542-2539 or email gerontology@uga.edu.
