Two new publications in the SENDA project

As part of the  SENDA study, two articles were published this year looking at the detection of cognitive impairment and dementia in aging individuals over the age of 80. The article in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience studied the resting EEG of individuals with and without cognitive impairment. The results suggest that parameters from frequency analysis are less useful for detecting dementia-related changes in the very old. The second article in the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society reported in detail on the cognitive performance of the older adults (> 80 years) to provide a basis for comparing the cognitive performance of individuals in this growing age group.
