Researchers developed a test in nonhuman primates that is now using infrared eye tracking to detect mild cognitive impairment in humans. The researchers hope the advanced technology will be helpful in predicting the onset of Alzheimer's disease. The test is helping researchers further understand the role of the brain structures critical to human memory.
