Award for the CEC Data Core to support data management and methodological development in AD/ADRD risk factor research under the TIME-AD project.
Description
The TIME-AD project aims to understand how AD/ADRD risk is influenced by high-priority risk factors such as alcohol use, depression, anti-depressant medications, hearing and vision impairments, and social isolation. The Cognition, Exposure, and Covariates (CEC) Data Core supports this by providing analytic datasets, managing data cleaning and integration, and addressing methodological challenges like measuring cognitive outcomes and selecting covariates for time-varying exposures. The core collaborates with multiple project teams and data cores to ensure data quality and relevance.
