About this study

The Arizona Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) is the National Institute on Aging's (NIA's) first statewide AD Center (ADC), the only ADC in the Southwestern United States, and a leading example of statewide collaboration in biomedical research. It capitalizes on Arizona's strengths in brain imaging, genomics, computer science and biomathematics, the basic, cognitive and behavioral neurosciences, clinical, and neuropathological studies of AD, the discovery and evaluation of investigational treatments, and the study of normal cognitive aging.

Only the research team can confirm whether you qualify. The intake questionnaire is the best way to find out.

Completing a questionnaire on Clinably does not enroll you in a clinical trial or confirm your eligibility. Only the research team can determine whether you qualify to participate. These results are based on the information you provide and are intended to help you start a conversation with the research team.
