MADISON, Wis., March 7, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quincy Bioscience, the makers of Prevagen®, celebrate National Brain Awareness Week by announcing a brand new free resource for your memory.
National Brain Awareness Week (March 12-18) is a time of year when the general public and health professionals alike turn their attention to the importance of brain health. It is important to note that often the first signs of an unhealthy brain are lapses in memory, poor concentration, and an inability to focus.
The Free Online Memory Test is now available in an easy-to-use format that allows visitors to gauge the health of their brain, and to track changes in short-term and working memory over time. The assessment is based on patient reported outcomes, an exciting and innovative new technology in the world of research.
"The Free Online Memory Test allows individuals to take a scientifically-based assessment that can pinpoint potential problems with their cognitive functioning," says Quincy Bioscience co-founder and President, Mark Underwood. "We are excited to offer this resource as a free service to those who are concerned about how optimally they are aging."
Prevagen, recently voted #1 Brain Health Supplement on the market, is proven to improve cognitive functioning in areas such as memory, concentration, and sleep.
