Neuroglee

Neuroglee — Cognitive Care Platform for Dementia and MCI Patients

UX/UI Designer 2022 - 2024 Singapore, United States

Overview

Neuroglee builds a cognitive care platform for patients with dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI), across three connected surfaces: a tablet app for patients, a mobile app for caregivers, and a web dashboard for clinical teams, supporting personalized cognitive care plans, stimulation exercises, and care coordination. I worked as one of three designers reporting to a design lead, co-designing across all three product surfaces, with slightly more time spent on the Patient App, alongside leading the company website redesign and the team's marketing materials.

My Role & Process

Cognitive care for dementia and MCI patients had no existing UI precedent to build from, so the work started with evidence-based care programs rather than established patterns. Working alongside two other designers, we translated that clinical structure into the Patient App, Caregiver App, and Clinician Dashboard together, without fixed ownership lines between products, though I spent proportionally more time on the Patient App than the other two.

What I Designed

Patient Tablet App

Co-designed the Patient App alongside the design team, working slightly more on this surface than the other two. Delivered cognitive stimulation exercises, brain health education, mind-and-body wellness activities, and reminiscence therapy content, translated from evidence-based care programs with no existing UI precedent to build from. Every design decision had to account for cognitive load, since the people using this app directly were the ones the product was designed to support.

Caregiver App & Clinician Dashboard

Co-designed the Caregiver App, giving caregivers visibility into patient status and schedules, and the Clinician Dashboard, supporting appointment booking and timely, data-informed care decisions.

Company Website & Marketing

Led the redesign of the company website, and designed the team's marketing materials, including LinkedIn content, event booth design, flyers, and investor pitch deck materials used in funding conversations.

Outcome

Every release reached 95% adoption across internal testers and the clinical team, including clinicians using the platform directly as part of care delivery, alongside the company's science team. This reflects validation within internal and clinical testing groups, ahead of a broader external launch.

Reflection

This project sharpened how I think about designing for cognitive load and emotional context, not just usability in the conventional sense. Working across three interconnected surfaces, with no existing pattern to build from, meant translating evidence-based care program structures into something a patient could use independently, while keeping caregivers and clinical teams aligned to the same underlying model.
