November 06, 2018 — The NIA recently funded a new center to advance research on Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias in Native populations across the United States. To address health disparities, the new center will recruit, train and mentor junior and midlevel scientists interested in pursuing research on Alzheimer’s disease in Native populations, with a special focus on American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander investigators, and others from underrepresented minority groups. The project will be a collaboration between Drs. Dedra Buchwald (WSU/UW ADRC), Spero Manson (University of Colorado Denver, and Thomas Montine (Stanford University, formerly UW ADRC).
