Enabling Early Detection of Dementia: New Cognitive Assessment Approaches

Cognitive assessments_MacBook Pro 16-04

From cancer to cardiovascular care, early detection and management of health issues has had a profound impact on outcomes and on people’s lives the world over. However, despite alarming projections around age-related cognitive disorders — dementia cases alone are expected to rise 40%, to almost 80M cases globally by 2030 — early detection methods and practices for brain health have lagged.

Technology advancements offer new promise for more practical, efficient, and sensitive assessments though – paving the way for providers and their patients to gain greater control of cognitive health. This webinar provides insights into new digital methods for detecting signs of cognitive impairment early and how providers can leverage them to modernize and streamline cognitive testing in their practices.

David J. Libon, PhD

Professor, New Jersey Institute for Successful Aging at Rowan University

Dr. Libon has conducted considerable research regarding neuropsychological syndromes associated with MRI evidence of white matter alterations and subcortical vascular dementia. Dr. Libon has published approximately 170 papers and edited two books, including a book on Edith Kaplan and the Boston Process Approach as related to clinical neuropsychological assessment. More recently, the Libon lab has used statistical modeling techniques to elucidate phenotypic syndromes in both dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
