Purpose of the study

The purpose of the study is to test how a 6-month exercise and cognitive training program affects cognition and brain function in people with mild cognitive impairment over 1.5 years.

Both exercise and cognitive training show great promise for preventing Alzheimer’s disease. University of Minnesota researchers seek to discover the most effective approaches to slowing cognitive decline in people with mild cognitive impairment.

ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE

A specialist will work with you three times

per week in a combination of exercises and

cognitive training activities, dependent

upon group assignment.

• You will be screened to make sure

exercise is safe for you

• You will take part in the activity at your

own pace

• Your memory, thinking and fitness will be

assessed 5 times and your brain will be

scanned 4 times over 18 months
