Founded in 2012 by Elli Kaplan, CEO, Neurotrack develops behavioral biomarkers to assist with the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.
The company holds an exclusive license for the technology behind its behavioral visual cognitive test (sensitive to damage in brain) from Emory University, following the favorable outcome of an NIH-sponsored longitudinal study.
