Diverse VCID: Improving Meaningful Diagnosis for People at Risk for Dementia
The Diverse-Vascular Cognitive Impairment and Dementia study uses advanced brain imaging and blood-based techniques to understand how vascular changes in late life cause brain injury that lead to cognitive decline. Our goal is to develop educational interventions and assessment strategies for medical doctors to increase their awareness and improve their ability to diagnose and treat cerebrovascular disease in ethnic/racially diverse communities of older adults before it causes cognitive decline or leads to dementia.
