Conference Overview
The conference is designed to advance the science on Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) disparities by increasing the pipeline of underrepresented minority URM* scholars in conducting population-based research with statewide registries.
This conference is 100% virtual and is open to anyone who is interested in learning, collaborating, or networking in the area of Alzheimer’s Disease Registries. Conference presentations will offer an overview of the existing statewide Alzheimer’s Disease registries in the United States, their potential impact on aging policies and initiatives, and how to engage stakeholders in registry research.
*URM is defined as persons from racial and ethnic groups that have been shown to be underrepresented in biomedical research. This includes Blacks, African Americans, Hispanics, Latinos, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other Pacific Islanders.
