Read our Alzheimer Disease research guide →Researchers are testing whether a new online test called TAS Test — which measures both your movement and thinking skills — can spot early signs of Alzheimer's disease before symptoms appear. The study will follow thousands of adults over several years to see if these simple online tests can reliably predict who might develop memory problems or Alzheimer's disease in the future.
Early detection of Alzheimer's disease is important because catching it before memory loss begins could eventually allow doctors to intervene sooner. Currently, there are no quick, convenient tests that people can do from home to identify early warning signs, so researchers are developing and testing this online approach.

If you join, you would complete online tests from home (or at a research center if you prefer) that measure how you move and think. Depending on which part of the study you enter, you might do these tests a few times over 6 months, or every 6 months for up to 5 years. You would also have one blood test at the start to measure certain markers related to Alzheimer's disease.
