Cognitive Labs Announces Free Memory Test for Veterans

Mountain View, CA - (PR Web) November 11, 2004—On this Veterans Day, Cognitive Labs, a software company developing Internet technologies for screening and monitoring cognitive performance, announced that it would immediately make available free memory test for veterans at Veteransmemorycheck.com. There, veterans are directed on how to take their free memory test, which compares their results in a series of scientifically-developed tests with hundreds of thousands of results already received. Based on performance, the visitor gets a quick "snapshot" of their cognitive performance. If the user desires, they can discuss the test with professionals and see if further consultation is warranted, or enroll in one of several inexpensive programs costing a few cents per day to track and monitor their cognitive performance over time.  

The Cognitive Labs web service is a highly usable and scientifically validated  application for detecting and monitoring memory loss over time, while improving concentration. From the New England Journal of Medicine to WebMD, and as cited in numerous scientific studies, the benefits of cognitive activity as people age are becoming increasingly clear.

Cognitive Labs produces and syndicates a network of newsletters, sites, and blogs, and works with affiliate partners that distribute news, information, and interactive tools about Alzheimer's Disease, Memory Loss, and Human Cognition. In the first three quarters of 2004, cognitivecare.com has given tens of thousands of memory tests for health-conscious consumers, researchers, and pharmaceutical clients.  

"Since veterans have given so much to the Country, now it is time to give something back. We partner with the scientific community leading the charge in fighting memory loss and Alzheimer's and are working closely with scientists to make a positive difference in people's lives and eventually, bring this approach to people everywhere," said Cognitive Labs CEO Michael Addicott. 

 "Our programs featuring MemCheck (TM), a powerful tool that can help people detect, monitor, and make positive changes in memory over time, based on sound science, have become increasingly popular."

Recently, the company presented a paper at the Society of Neuroscience in San Diego, featuring the effective use of its web application software in administering a large scale-clinical trial to hundreds of participants while also providing an objective measure of changes in cognition over time via a secure n-tier architecture for both control and placebo groups.

In addition to clinical trial research services, visitors to cognitivecare.com, the company’s secured test site can purchase an annual subscription to MemCheck and access all services for $69.95. For $9.95 per month, subscribers get MemCheck and MemWatch, helping them perform periodic check-ups of their memory while comparing their results to a baseline of scores from an ever-increasing number of users, combined with memory and cognitive enhancing games. The company has enrolled over 985,000 members since inception. Search and Affiliates are instrumental in the fast growth of the company. Join us today to help us help others.
