Developing robust biomarkers for vascular cognitive impairment and dementia: Adding V to the ATN research framework [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2025 ]

Research Grant

Brief description The main objective of this research is to develop biomarkers for vascular dementia. It builds upon the longitudinal studies and international consortia that I lead. The studies will use multimodal MRI, advanced retinal imaging, mass spectrometry and other techniques to establish and validate robust biomarkers of vascular contributions to dementia. The findings will help achieve a definitive diagnosis of vascular dementia and quantify vascular pathology in someone with dementia.
