Show Notes

Scientists and Alzheimer’s disease have been doing battle for decades and so far, the disease has been winning.

The research on the device was spearheaded by Dr. James Arruda, a professor of Psychology at the University of West Florida. We'll talk about this new technology. wamc.org/show/the-best-of-our-knowledge
