IGNITE App

Ignite is a cognitive assessment tool designed for early detection of frontotemporal dementia. An alternative to standard psychology assessments, Ignite tests your thinking skills and problem solving abilities through its short tasks. Unlike standard psychology tests it puts you in charge - you can perform Ignite at home without the assistance of a psychologist. It has been designed by the FTD talk team at University College London and investigators from the GENetic Frontotemporal dementia Initiative (GENFI) study. Frontotemporal dementia is one of the commonest forms of young onset dementia and Ignite aims to be sensitive to early changes in cognitive performance for those at-risk of developing the illness.
