Lebanese-Canadian Neurologist: Test Nasreddine

lebanese-canadian neurologist: You can see the test here . The Lebanese-Canadian neurologist learned from a reporter Tuesday afternoon that the White House had selected the Montreal Cognitive Assessment to test the president's faculties after days of speculation about his state, according to CTV. This was the test Nasreddine developed as a young researcher two decades ago, in an effort to quickly assess, within 10 or 12 minutes, whether someone has suffered light cognitive impairment or the onset of Alzheimer's disease, by asking them to perform tasks such as drawing a clock, identifying animals and remembering words. That person was Ziad Nasreddine -- who designed the test. He says it has now been used in 200 countries, in 60 languages, and has been deployed in one developing country to demonstrate its leader was no longer fit to govern. It's really an honour for me, said Nasreddine, now affiliated with McGill and Sherbrooke universities in Quebec. On Tuesday, the White House announced Trump's score 30 for 30.
