Project Overview

In both children and adults with neurological diseases, cognitive dysfunction frequently is accompanied by motor dysfunction. One accessible method to assay motor dysfunction is through analyzing speech. Voice-based tests for some diseases like Parkinson's can be as accurate as clinical tests. Performing these tests through smartphones opens up an opportunity to administer such tests remotely, without requiring a visit to the clinic. A successful smartphone app to track cognitive function/dysfunction could be high speed, ultra low cost and massively scalable.
