Dr Jess Amos is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and Trial Manager working across several projects focused on dementia prevention and digital health promotion. She joined the Cognitive Ageing and Resilience Lab in 2019 and has contributed to multiple clinical trials focused on dementia and dementia risk reduction. In 2025, she completed her PhD at the University of New South Wales. Her PhD was embedded within the NeuRA-supported MyCOACH trial, which explored the benefits of a digitally delivered intervention to support behaviour change older adults with subjective cognitive decline or mild cognitive impairment. Her research focused on goal setting and examined patterns of engagement and the impact of both self-directed and practitioner-supported approaches in promoting lifestyle changes linked to dementia risk reduction.

Jess currently manages the CogCoach-Health dementia risk reduction trial, applying her expertise in digital intervention development and evaluation. She is particularly interested in how technology can be used to support older adults to initiate and sustain healthy lifestyle changes through tools that are inclusive, scalable, and grounded in behavioral science.
