   Proposal Description:
   <textarea name="description" rows="12" cols="85" wrap="virtual" readonly>The goal of the project is the development of a digital register for patients     with dementia in Bulgaria. The project has the ambition of a nation-wide          coverage of dementia cases in the country. The register will be used for           epidemiological studies, assessment of dementia care in the country and the       formation of strategies for its improvement, as well as scientific research in    the field.                                                                         The aim of the project is to create digital twin models based on big data and     machine learning and artificial intelligence methods for exploration of           behavioural changes in patients with proven cognitive disorders. Such models      will identify the causes and trends that lead to a deepening of the long-term     cognitive decline. Their results will be used to assess cognitive status in a     timely manner and suggest                                                          appropriate preventive actions of cognitive disorders.                             The project is in its beginning and currently aims to assess the major            registers around the world. </textarea>
