Changing the trajectory of cognitive disease together
Elli Kaplan lost two grandparents to Alzheimer’s disease. When she learned about technology that could speed detection, she wanted to make it available to as many people as possible. In 2012, she partnered with leading neuroscientists and researchers Stuart Zola, Ph.D., Elizabeth Buffalo, Ph.D., and Cecelia Manzanares to found Neurotrack.
Today, Kaplan leads our remote team of scientists, developers, and product designers, spread across the US and Canada, with hubs in Silicon Valley and Vancouver.
We draw on clinical research, leading-edge technology, and lived experience with our loved ones to create convenient, digital solutions with patients and providers in mind.
For us, it’s personal
After years of avoiding conversations about cognitive health, my parents took our assessment and finally took memory concerns seriously. They made appointments to see their doctor right away.
– Vinicius Ronconi, Backend Engineer
By the time my mother-in-law was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, there wasn’t much that could be done. Within a month of her passing, I was interviewing at Neurotrack. I'm passionate about speeding access to care and resources.
– Emily Lapkin, Head of Content and Communications
My grandmother passed from Alzheimer’s, and now my mother has it, too. Every design choice I make at Neurotrack is informed by this experience and the desire to make the cognitive testing process less painful.
– Caroline Tapp, Lead Product Designer
