Ioannis is a co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Altoida. Ioannis’ research focuses on using new technologies to understand the aging process and to establish prevention methods that decrease the risk of developing dementia or delay the onset of the disease. Ioannis has developed models and screens of dementia using computerized tests of complex, real-life activities, such as a novel assessment of spatial navigation and movement trajectory. With this technology, Ioannis is developing a predictive tool based on cognitive and non-cognitive biomarkers of early onset dementia.
At Altoida, Ioannis will pursue his development of computational biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease. He is also working with local and international Alzheimer advocacy organizations to develop a responsible strategy to implement this technology and enable machine intelligence for disease prevention
