Brain boosters: can an iPad app help fend off memory loss?

NCT ID NCT05027789

Summary

This study is testing whether a 6-month program teaching memory strategies and healthy lifestyle habits can help older adults who are worried about their memory. Participants are randomly placed into one of two groups: one receives general coaching, while the other gets specific goals and uses an iPad app (called EMMA) to track their progress. The goal is to see if this training can improve or maintain memory, thinking skills, and daily functioning over a year.
