The way that we learn about Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and others, is from participation by people (like you!).
You can make an important contribution by helping scientists understand these disorders. You can participate in a research study.
We are currently recruiting adults who have been diagnosed with:
Early stage Alzheimer's disease (or probable Alzheimer's disease).
Parkinson's disease.
We are also looking for healthy adults, middle-aged and older.
Also, we are seeking individuals of any age who have, or believe they may have Synesthesia.
Participation in our research does not involve taking medications nor other substances. None of our studies are designed to be painful or uncomfortable for our participants. In fact, many people who participate find the experience to be interesting and educational. We offer a stipend and free parking for participation in many of our studies. Studies are primarily conducted at our Boston, Massachusetts location.
Please note that The Vision & Cognition Laboratory studies people's abilities, and does not diagnose disorders. We do not diagnose nor treat Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, or any other neurological disorder or condition. Our purpose is to learn more about how neurological disorders and conditions affect people's functioning, and how we can improve people's functioning.
Visit our Links Page for resources dealing with the diagnosis of, and living with, neurological disorders and conditions.
