NCT ID NCT06716528

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study followed 76 people from an earlier study (BioCog) to see if their thinking and memory skills changed 7 to 10 years later. Participants took cognitive tests through a web application at home, plus a phone or video visit. The goal was to see if remote testing can reliably detect long-term cognitive deficits.
