Research Study for the Hispanic Community

We are developing and validating a dementia neuropsychological evaluation for the Hispanic community residing in the US. We are looking for 105 individuals who are primarily Spanish-speaking between the ages of 50-79 who would like to participate in our study. The participants will be asked to complete paper and pencil tests in Spanish. The person must be neurologically healthy and not experiencing any problems with memory. Participants will be compensated $50.00 for their time and travel. Please contact Dr. Adriana Macias from Baylor College of Medicine at 713-798-1028.
