Rhoda Au

Rhoda Au, Ph.D., does research on cognitive aging and dementia has recently centered on using technologies to develop a multi-sensory brain health monitoring platform that is customizable, flexibly responsive to the rapidly changing technology landscape, technology agnostic, and scalable to achieve global representativeness in AD-related research. Her strategic research plan is to transition from reliance on active engagement technologies to low/no engagement ones to practically allow longitudinal assessments that are necessary to move from a primary focus on precision AD medicine to a broader emphasis on precision brain health. She actively supports broad data sharing/accessibility initiatives to accelerate data science/AI-driven discovery of digital biomarkers, including those that can serve as surrogate indices of fluid and imaging biomarkers and novel disease pathways and treatment solutions.
