Alzheimer's Research Studies

The Human Spatial Cognition Lab at the University of Arizona (UA) is recruiting adult volunteers to participate in research investigating memory and spatial navigation.

ADNI is a landmark study of brain aging. ADNI is an observational study, so no medications or treatments are given as part of the study. ADNI researchers study changes in thinking and memory over time through online and in-person assessments, as well as memory and other types of tests to help us learn more about brain health and Alzheimer’s. The study includes people with no memory problems, mild memory concerns and those with early dementia/Alzheimer’s disease. Eligible participants who complete certain phases of the ADNI study may be paid.

The University of Texas at Arlington research team is conducting a research study to find biological signs in the brain for early detection of Alzheimer's disease with a new, low-cost, portable device.

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.

Researchers are currently working on a research project to understand aging, decision making, and the brain. This study involves visiting the University of Arizona campus five times.

The overarching purpose of this study is to develop non-invasive, painless repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) protocols to prevent cognitive decline in individuals at high risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

University of Arizona – Tucson researchers are looking for volunteers living with Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA) to participate in a research study that investigates therapeutic effects of noninvasive brain stimulation on language.
