Researching Memory with mobile Apps

With the help of a free app everyone can now contribute to the research of cognition. The app is part of the citizen-science project “Exploring memory together - which factors influence memory function in everyday life”. The scientific focus will be on how sleep quality and flu-like infections affect memory performance. The project is a cooperation of the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), the Institute of Cognitive Neurology and Dementia Research (IKND) of the University Hospital Magdeburg and the neotiv GmbH as project initiator.
