Language as a Key to Early Neurodegenerative Disease Detection

A National Fund for Scientific and Technological Development (Fondecyt) grant has been awarded to Dr. Adolfo García, a cognitive neuroscientist focused on language and interpersonal communication. His project, ‘Digital speech and language markers of extrasylvian dysfunction in neurodegeneration,’ seeks to identify specific digital indicators within speech and language that can reveal brain dysfunction associated with neurodegenerative diseases.
