Brice McConnell
University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus
Department of Neurology
Brice McConnell's research focuses on the early detection of Alzheimer's disease using digital biomarkers. His work involves developing wearable devices, such as EEG headbands, that monitor brain waves during sleep to identify disruptions indicative of early Alzheimer's. This approach aims to catch the disease in its pre-symptomatic stages, allowing for earlier intervention and potential mitigation strategies.
