NIH-funded project to develop a curriculum and mentoring program for careers in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias research, focusing on social and health disparities.
Description
The overarching goal of this NIH-funded project is to develop and support a structured curriculum and mentoring program to foster careers in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD) research. The focus is on health, social factors, and health system factors across the life course, emphasizing variations across social and economic groups. The program aims to mentor early- and mid-career researchers, support pilot projects, and facilitate the transition to independent research careers, particularly among populations at risk for AD/ADRD.
