NIA awards Cleveland Clinic $2.6 million grant to develop automated screening for cognitive decline

(Cleveland Clinic) Cleveland Clinic has been awarded a $2.6 million grant from the National Institute on Aging to develop and validate two automated tools - a risk calculator to identify patients at high risk of cognitive decline and a screening tool to test for cognitive decline. An interdisciplinary team at Cleveland Clinic aims to create a low-cost, time-efficient procedure that can be used in primary care settings to identify and screen patients at high risk of cognitive decline.
