About

Dr. Bianca Buchgraber-Schnalzer is a leading researcher in digital health and cognitive aging, whose work centers on developing scalable, multimodal lifestyle interventions to promote brain health in older adults. Her major contribution lies in translating the landmark Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study (FINGER) into a digitally supported format through the LETHE randomized controlled feasibility trial. This innovative study, published in 2024 and already garnering 23 citations, demonstrates her ability to bridge evidence-based prevention with accessible technology. By integrating nutrition, exercise, cognitive training, and vascular risk management into a single digital platform, Dr. Buchgraber-Schnalzer is pioneering a new frontier in dementia prevention—one that could make personalized brain health programs available to millions. Her work addresses a critical gap: how to deliver complex, multidomain lifestyle interventions at scale while maintaining fidelity and engagement. With a growing citation impact and a focus on real-world implementation, she is shaping the future of preventive neurology. Her research not only advances scientific understanding but also offers practical tools for aging populations worldwide, making her a vital voice in the fight against cognitive decline.
