Today, I review, link to, and excerpt from Alzheimers Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) from the National Institute On Aging.
All that follows is from the above resource.
Alzheimers Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI)
A public-private partnership, the purpose of ADNI is to develop a multisite, longitudinal, prospective, naturalistic study of normal cognitive aging, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and early Alzheimer’s disease as a public domain research resource to facilitate the scientific evaluation of neuroimaging and other biomarkers for the onset and progression of MCI and Alzheimer’s disease.
Dr. Laurie Ryan of the NIA gives a brief overview of ADNI in this video:
