NIH-supported project to develop and apply fluid and MRI biomarker capabilities for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, including biomarker validation and research focused on rural New Mexico populations.
Description
The Biomarker (Fluid) Core uses fluid- and MRI-based biomarkers to classify Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias by vascular and neurodegenerative contributions. The project establishes sample collection, biobanking, and biomarker analysis infrastructure; validates plasma biomarkers; and supports research on ADRD risk, prevalence, and prognosis, especially among medically underrepresented rural populations in New Mexico.
