Dementia

Aprinda Indahlastari Queen is investigating the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on working memory.

Dr. Brittany DeFeis is among three UF postdoctoral associates named to the McKnight Brain Institute's mentoring program.

She will investigate how cardiovascular and metabolic diseases contribute to Lewy body disease.

The team is the first in the U.S. to test a new non-invasive device that may improve brain structure and function.

Her illustration was selected as one of the winning images in the annual Coalition for Academic Scientific Computation image contest.

The research center is focused on discovering interventions to prevent or remediate age-related cognitive decline.

The study will use a combination of brain imaging and artificial intelligence tools to establish the effectiveness of a cognitive training program.

Breanna Singletary, a recent graduate of the clinical doctoral program of occupational therapy, completed a capstone project to create and implement a quality-of-life assessment tool for The Botes Memory™, a dementia evaluation and treatment platform used by Concierge Home Care.

In January 2022, CHP’s researchers Dr. Adam Woods and Dr. Aprinda Indahlastari  participated in Georgia Tech’s GPU Hackathon seeking to optimize computational brain science applications, while teaming up with UF’s Artificial Intelligence Initiative partners at NVIDIA and OpenACC. “During the hackathon, the UF-NVIDIA team worked…

The team significantly improved processing speed for an AI study during a hackathon held last month.
