Dementia Diagnosis

BRACE is a research charity dedicated solely to funding research into different forms of dementia. 

Below you can find BRACE-funded research projects that have looked into developing accurate and effective means of diagnosing for dementias as early as possible.

Please note that not all BRACE-funded research projects are featured on our website.

Research from 2010 - 2022:

Improving our understanding of vascular mild cognitive impairment and vascular dementia.

Fast-Periodic-Visual-Stimulation – a new technique for assessing memory in Alzheimer’s disease.

Targeting the hippocampus, improving accuracy of diagnosis, and could drugs used for other diseases help dementia?

This project aims to determine whether VOCs in breath can act as biomarkers for early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s.

The focus of this project is to use unique new SPHERE technology to develop non-invasive, accurate, early diagnosis.

Better understand the range of brain functions that are affected by the early stages of different forms of dementia.

Metacognition: improving diagnostic tools to distinguish between Functional Cognitive Disorder and Mild Cognitive Impairment.
