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.
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.
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.
EPIC: Living Alone is a research project designed to assist people with early-stage memory loss who are living alone in the community, by providing early-stage education and skill-training sessions designed to reduce stress, enhance well-being, manage challenges, and plan for the future.
EPIC II (Early-Stage Partners in Care) is a research project designed to assist people with early-stage memory loss and their care partners by providing early-stage related education and skill-training sessions designed to reduce stress, enhance well-being, manage challenges, and plan for the future. Researchers will gather feedback from individuals about their experience to continue to improve programs for early-stage memory loss.
FIT-AD SMART Trial is a 12-month study that is testing the impact of various exercise types on cognitive and physical outcomes in older adults with early-stage Alzheimer's disease. A study partner is required to report on quality-of-life measures.
The I-CARE2 Study is testing the effectiveness of a mobile, telehealth supported caregiver intervention aimed at providing support and training to caregivers to better manage behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia.
