πŸ‘΅ The first signs of #dementia are often subtle declines in people's ability to do basic tasks like preparing a meal
🏑 Our RADAR-AD project kitted out a house with smart sensors and showed that the data gathered did allow researchers to differentiate between people with cognitive decline/impairment and healthy controls
πŸ’‘ They hope their findings will advance earlier #diagnosis
