  • Help develop a new ‘brain training’ treatment for people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)

    A research study is being carried out at Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust by Dr Nima Moghaddam from the University of Lincoln.

    We are developing a new ‘brain training’ treatment to help people with MCI to address problems with thinking skills. We need your help to see

    • whether this training (known as SMART) is acceptable to people with MCI, and
    • if we can do a larger study to test whether SMART improves thinking skills in people with MCI

    We are recruiting adults with a diagnosis of MCI.

    If you feel this is something you may be interested in please contact Lizwi Nyathi by emailing - Lizwi.nyathi@nhs.net
