NCT ID NCT03860857
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why some people's thinking and memory get worse as they get older. Researchers will use brain scans and memory tests in 300 healthy adults aged 60 and older to find early signs of Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to better understand how the brain changes over time, not to test a treatment.
