CHS-CSCD_RECALL_Lab-042722

Participate in a study to help researchers better understand language and memory skills of older adults AND see if you are eligible for an online memory workshop

Four reasons to participate in this study: 
 

1. To build a shared internet database of language and cognitive samples of older adults who depict a range of abilities. The database will help researchers better understand the progression of language and cognitive skills in older adults.
 

2. To provide you with a free memory assessment!
 

3. To determine if you qualify for a clinical trial investigating the effects of an online group memory workshop to learn new tools and strategies that may improve your everyday life!

 

4. Improve representation of populations that are underrepresented in research
