The aging population in Europe is leading to an increase in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is expected to affect 152 million people worldwide by 2050. In Italy, there are approximately 1.2 million cases of dementia, with 600,000 attributed to AD. Given the limited effectiveness of current pharmacological treatments, there is a growing need for early, non-pharmacological interventions to slow disease progression and improve the quality of life for patients and caregivers. The Neurocognitive Assessment Platform 4 Alzheimer (NAP4A) study aims to create a digital platform for the early detection of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCIa), considered an intermediate stage between normal aging and dementia. The platform uses non-invasive biometric tools, including EEG, blood flow sensors, and eye-tracking devices, to collect neurophysiological and behavi
