Digital cognitive risk triage

AlzAware

A powerful model trained on a large cognitive-health dataset.

A no-cost tool for understanding Alzheimer’s risk signals.

How It Works

1

Enter answers to a few simple questions.

2

A pre-trained model calculates your AD risk score.

3

Your score is compared with two large reference groups: AD and non-AD.

Who We Are

A group of high school students who love using state-of-the-art technology to solve real-world problems, under the supervision of an outstanding researcher in Alzheimer’s disease.

Students: Charles Chen and Cindy Chen are high school students who love using state-of-the-art technology to solve real world problems, under the supervision of outstanding experts in AD research. They actively participate in research programs, including Arizona State University Science and Engineering Experience (ASU SCENE) for high school students and research internships. They have been involved in several Alzheimer's disease research projects led by professors/researchers from universities/research institutes. They have disseminated their research findings via conference posters and papers published in peer-reviewed journals. They are very enthusiastic about the research projects and eager to make more significant contributions.

Mentor: Dr. Kewei Chen is a research professor at the University of Arizona and Arizona State University, and a member of the Arizona Alzheimer's Consortium (AAZ). He is an outstanding expert in AD research and has authored more than 900 peer-reviewed journal articles, including hundreds of publications related to AD.

Our Mission

To make early cognitive risk awareness easier to access by transforming simple demographic and health-history information into an interpretable machine-learning reference score that supports earlier conversations, smarter triage, and responsible clinical follow-up.

1

To help older adults become more aware of their cognitive health risks.

2

To provide powerful, low-cost or no-cost tools to communities.

3

To utilize new knowledge and technology to benefit people around the world.
