The Alzheimer Prevention Trials Webstudy (APT Webstudy) is an online memory and thinking research tool aiming to accelerate the enrollment for Alzheimer’s clinical trials. This will be done by identifying and tracking individuals who may be at higher risk for developing Alzheimer’s, with the goal of providing members the opportunity to participate in clinical trials aimed at preventing dementia.
The Autism Brain Aging Laboratory is among the first to study age-related changes in adults with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD) through neuropsychological evaluations and multi-modal neuroimaging.
This study is recruiting adults WITHOUT ASD to participate as healthy controls to compare to similar participants with ASD.
This six-month virtual training involves online assessments, training videos and discussion groups. The small group discussions are virtual, and topic centered. Two of the discussions are combined, small group, virtual discussions with the care partners and persons with the diagnosis. Five of the group discussions are separate, small group, virtual discussions; one for the care partners and one for the persons with a diagnosis.
CARE (Collaborative Approach for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders Research and Education) is creating a research registry of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (AANHPI) who are interested in participating in various types of research, particularly those related to Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), aging, caregiving, and other factors that affect health across the lifespan.
Be part of an important study exploring how personal social networks change over time and enhance the well-being and resilience for caregivers of those living with dementia.
CarePRO Virtual Plus is a research project designed to assist individuals caring for someone with memory loss by providing education and skill-training sessions designed to reduce stress, enhance well-being, manage challenges, and plan for the future.
CarePRO-LTC was developed to address the ongoing needs for family and friends caring for individuals with dementia (Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias – ADRD) who have been placed in long-term care facilities. 42% of residents in assisted living communities have Alzheimer’s or other dementias, and 61% of nursing home residents have moderate or severe cognitive impairment. Furthermore, by age 80, 75% of people with Alzheimer’s dementia are admitted to a nursing home, compared with only 4% of the general population. The caregiving role and its related stress and distress does not necessarily disappear after the placement of a loved one with ADRD in long-term care.
The Draw-10 study is designed to collect 10 blood samples over the course of 9 consecutive weeks to assess fluctuations in blood-based biomarker results.
