lara lewington has been looking at some technological approaches to better understand this condition.developing it too. but a new study hopes to offer some promise for those at high risk by gamifying brain analysis, and an earlier diagnosis would mean the chance to try and treat the condition sooner. well early detection of dementia is important because what we're beginning to understand is that by the time people start to notice the symptoms of dementia like memory loss, there might actually be quite extensive changes in the brain there. this app is actually developed for 30 and 40—year—olds to use, to help diagnose the possible early stages of dementia. i have to say, i was a little bit nervous about doing this, because i was worried i was going to find out somthing i didn't want to. but it seems that because it is still very early days for the trial, right now this will alljust come down to some anonymised data, so i won't actually get that answer back. but the questions are a mixture of whether you will get it right, the time you do it in, or whether you are going to be able to fi
