We are currently looking for volunteers to participate in a study run by Dr. Angela Hanson at the University of Washington: The COGIT-2 Trial. COGIT-2 is a research study looking at whether crosswords puzzles training and health education can improve cognitive performance in participants with memory concerns.
Who is eligible?
- You are age 55 to 89
- You or your loved ones have noticed some problems with your memory
- You are not currently doing crosswords, Sudoku, or other cognitive training methods more than once per month
What is involved?
- This study will last a total of about 18 months. During that time, you will need to come into the University of Washington South Lake Union campus approximately every 3 months. These visits include testing of memory and other intellectual abilities, questionnaires, blood draws, and MRI scans. You will be compensated for your time and will be reimbursed for parking and transportation if needed.
We need your help to fight Alzheimer’s disease! If you are interested, please contact our study team.
