The AHEAD Study is a new trial aiming to prevent Alzheimer’s disease. It is evaluating whether an investigational treatment (BAN2401 (lecanemab)) can lower the amount of amyloid in the brain and how that impacts decline in memory loss due to Alzheimer’s.
Studies have shown that changes caused by Alzheimer’s occur in the brain many years before a person shows symptoms of the disease.
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.

Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in these pairs, and they increase the risks for many psychological and cognitive health issues for both persons. This research will help to determine if the behavioral intervention plan provided is practical and useful for pairs experiencing sleep problems.

The TRAP-AD study is investigating if an experimental treatment device that uses near-infrared light therapy will lead to improvement in cognition in adults with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) and early AD. The treatment, transcranial photobiomodulation (t-PBM), stimulates certain parts of the brain that are thought to be affected in memory impairment.
