This is a uniquely valuable cohort of individuals at high risk for developing AD, many of whom have already developed early signs of dementia. There is almost 20 years of repeated clinical evaluations, neuropsychological testing, and plasma samples, as well as 15 years of structural MRI data and CSF samples. Revision applications may not request support beyond the project end date of the Parent U19 award.
