Multimodal Imaging in Cognitive Decline (The MInD Sub-study)
The MInD Sub-study is investigating brain activity that is associated with age-related cognitive changes. By exploring brain activity associated with aging and cognitive decline, the team hope to identify early signs of cognitive decline and better understand the mechanisms of memory and thinking changes in illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease.
