    Alzheimer Europe released the 41st edition of its Dementia in Europe magazine. Alzheimer Europe partners in three new projects linked to Artificial Intelligence are highlighted in this issue.

    In this article, a brief overview of the Horizon Europe-funded eBRAIN-Health project is given through the interview of the project’s coordinator, Prof. Petra Ritter. Prof. Ritter gives her perspective on the rationale behind the project and the concrete actions being undertaken.

    "Digital twins that simulate individual brains have the potential to accelerate research, and improve clinical decisionmaking for patients with AD. In eBRAIN-Health, we are working together to realise this potential, by developing a powerful digital platform that will keep patient data secure whilst driving innovation.”
