Abstract The United States has invested significant resources through innovative research to address the profound effects of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias (ADRD) on families and society, but older adults from historically underrepresented minorities and socioeconomically disadvantaged adults (herein, older minorities) have not experienced the full benefits of scientific advances from that research. For example, older minorities live more years with undiagnosed disorders, endure a higher number of functional disabilities, have fewer treatment options, and experience higher levels of stigma. Hindering innovation and dissemination of approaches to ADRD health disparities research is the lack of a highly trained, interdisciplinary scientific workforce that addresses the full range of biological, biomedical, behavioral, and health sciences supported by NIH. This two-installment conference series will bring together emerging investigators from across the US to address the National Alzheimer Project Act (NAPA) 2017 goal of prevention and effective treatment of ADRD by 2025 as well as the National Institute on Aging Health Disparities Framework and NAPA's strategy (1.B) to address health disparities that influence ADRD health outcomes among older minorities. An essential feature of the series will be to engage community stakeholders (persons with ADRD, family caregivers, providers) in multiple aspects of the conference design, planning and implementation including the selection of scholars, providing feedback on conference presentations, and dissemination. Planning, implementation, participation and evaluation of the conference will incorporate individuals from historically underrepresented groups. The aims of the conference series are: (1) to examine existing research on ADRD health disparities and older minorities particularly in the epidemiology, etiology, identification, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of ADRD in the US; (2) to examine existing research studies intended to address multi-level factors that influence the health of persons with ADRD and family caregivers from diverse communities; (3) to develop the research careers of a diverse, highly trained, interdisciplinary team-based scientific workforce specializing in the diversity of experiences of older minorities and their families affected by ADRD; (4) to generate highly tailored, innovative, rigorous, team-based scientific proposals lead by the scholars cohort on ADRD health disparities; (5) to facilitate intensive mentoring and early engagement of emerging scholars in ADRD disparities research using a multi-mentor, multi-disciplinary team science approach; and (6) to create opportunities for community stakeholders, the scientific community, NIH directors and/or program officers to leverage collaborations in multi-investigator and multi-disciplinary projects.

抽象的 美国通过创新研究投入了大量资源，以解决深刻 阿尔茨海默氏病和其他痴呆症（ADRD）对家庭和社会的影响 历史上代表性不足的少数民族和社会经济处于不利的成年人（以下是年龄较大的成年人 少数族裔）没有从这项研究中获得科学进步的全部好处。 例如，老年少数族裔的生活年龄更多 功能障碍，治疗方案较少，并且经历更高水平的污名。阻碍 创新和传播ADRD健康差异研究的方法是缺乏训练有素的， 跨学科的科学劳动力大力涉及生物学，生物医学，行为和 NIH支持的健康科学。 这个两个安装的会议系列将使美国各地的新兴调查员聚集在一起 探讨2017年《美国阿尔茨海默氏症项目法》（NAPA）预防和有效治疗ADRD的目标 到2025 解决影响老年少数民族中ADRD健康成果的健康差异。一个基本功能 该系列将是与社区利益相关者（拥有ADRD，家庭护理人员，提供者）的社区利益相关者参与 会议设计，计划和实施的多个方面，包括选择学者， 提供有关会议演讲和传播的反馈。计划，实施，参与 对会议的评估将结合历史上代表性不足的群体的个人。 会议系列的目的是：（1）检查有关ADRD健康差异和较老的现有研究 少数民族在流行病学，病因学，识别，诊断，治疗和预防中 在美国； （2）检查旨在解决影响的多层次因素的现有研究 来自不同社区的ADRD和家庭护理人员的健康； （3）发展研究 由多样化，训练有素，跨学科的科学劳动力的职业专门研究 少数群体及其家庭经历的多样性； （4）生成高度量身定制的 由学者队列在ADRD健康差异方面领导的创新，严格，基于团队的科学建议； （5）促进新兴学者在ADRD差距研究中的密集指导和早期参与 采用多基金会的多学科团队科学方法； （6）为社区创造机会 利益相关者，科学界，NIH董事和/或计划官员利用合作 多研究器和多学科项目。
