The Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Public Health of the Johns Hopkins University are proposing a new Alzheimer's-related Resources Center for Minority Aging Research (AD- RCMAR) in response to RFA-AG-18-002. The aims of this application are to: (1) mentor early- stage investigators from underrepresented backgrounds in minority aging and health disparities research, with a focus on Alzheimer's disease and related disorders (ADRD), using a life course perspective encompassing biological, behavioral, and community factors contributing to cognitive impairment and dementia in older minority adults; (2) conduct epidemiological, preventive, and intervention research that addresses ADRD in later life within a multi-level framework that encompasses individuals, families, social networks, and communities; and 3) engage communities and health care providers – especially family caregivers, primary care practices, communities of faith, and community organizations – as our partners in recognizing dementia and developing interventions with the potential to prevent cognitive decline and reduce ADRD dementia risk and disparities in minority older adults. The Johns Hopkins AD- RCMAR consists of: (1) an Administrative Core whose function is to provide governance and an administrative structure, to support research, to foster interactions between Cores and other Centers, and to ensure RCMAR Scientists develop mentoring relationships across the affiliated departments, schools, the intramural program at NIA in Baltimore, and nationally; (2) a Research Education Component to foster diverse junior investigators and mid-career investigators transitioning into ADRD-relevant research through support for individual pilot projects, career mentoring, scholar-to-scholar interactions, and role modeling; (3) a Community- Liaison and Recruitment Core to ensure the relevance of the ADRD research and to increase knowledge of engagement of community members in the research enterprise with the creation of a Community Resource Institute as a venue for community-investigator interaction; and (4) an Analysis Core as a foundation for methodological and statistical mentoring, including education and mentoring in mixed-methods research. An Executive Committee includes community representatives and a Scientific Advisory Panel consists of distinguished investigators with relevant expertise in minority aging, disparities, and ADRD. A pilot project program supported by all Cores to facilitate the development of RCMAR Scientists includes three initial pilot projects focusing on recruitment of minority populations for ADRD research, early diagnoses of dementia, and intervention development related to ADRD-related driving disparities.

约翰霍普金斯大学的医学，护理和公共卫生学校是 提出了一个新阿尔茨海默氏症相关的少数民族老龄化研究中心（AD- RCMAR）响应RFA-AG-18-002。该应用的目的是：（1）精神早期 - 来自少数族裔老化和健康分配中代表性不足背景的舞台调查员 研究着重于阿尔茨海默氏病和相关疾病（ADRD）的研究，使用生活课程 涵盖生物学，行为和社区因素的观点有助于 老年人成年人的认知障碍和痴呆症； （2）进行流行病学， 预防性和干预研究解决了多层次境内的ADRD 包括个人，家庭，社交网络和社区的框架； 3） 吸引社区和医疗保健提供者 - 尤其是家庭护理人员，初级保健 作为认可的合作伙伴，实践，信仰社区和社区组织 痴呆和发展干预措施，以防止认知能力下降和 降低少数族裔老年人的ADRD痴呆症风险和差异。约翰·霍普金斯（Johns Hopkins） RCMAR由：（1）行政核心，其功能是提供治理和 行政结构，支持研究，以促进核心与其他 中心，并确保RCMAR科学家在整个会员之间发展心理关系 部门，学校，巴尔的摩NIA的壁内计划以及全国； （2）a 研究教育部分，以培养潜水员初级调查人员和职业生涯 通过支持个人飞行员的研究人员过渡到与ADRD相关的研究 项目，职业心理，学校到熟练的互动和榜样； （3）一个社区 - 联络和招聘核心以确保ADRD研究的相关性并增加 与创建有关社区成员参与研究企业的知识 社区资源研究所作为社区评估者互动的场所； （4） 分析核心作为方法论和统计心理的基础，包括教育 和混合方法研究中的心理。执行委员会包括社区 代表和科学咨询小组由杰出研究人员组成 少数族裔，差异和ADRD方面的相关专业知识。支持试点项目计划 所有核心促进RCMAR科学家的发展包括三个初始飞行员 专注于招募少数族裔研究的项目，早期诊断 痴呆症和与ADRD相关的驾驶差异有关的干预开发。
