Mind Share: A Research Study Measuring the Relationship Between Lifestyle, Health, and Alzheimer’s Disease

Mind Share is a research application utilizing Apple’s ResearchKit to gather data from iPhone and iPad users in the United States. The study will gather data using clinical surveys and BrainBaseline’s cognitive test suite to look at how behavior, lifestyle, medical history, and other factors affect cognitive function in people with mild cognitive impairment, dementia, or Alzheimers disease. This research could be important to develop a brief, non-invasive screening instrument for Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or mild cognitive impairment in the future.

While participating in the study, the app will gather three types of information:
1. You will complete surveys to help us understand general demographic and lifestyle information that is important to the study.
2. As a participant, you will be asked to complete BrainBaseline assessments to track cognitive function over the course of the study.
3. Health information will be gathered and recorded via your devices Health app. You can choose which information to share with Mind Share.

We invite you to participate in the study as we combine survey, assessment, and health data to bring us closer to understanding these diseases and the underlying cognitive effects on people diagnosed with the diseases. We thank you for your participation.
