ABSTRACT The Resource Center for Alzheimer’s and Dementia Research in Asian and Pacific Americans (RCASIA) has missions of 1) increasing scientists underrepresented in AD/ADRD-related Behavioral, Social, and Economic Research biomedical research through innovative models of mentoring and community interaction; 2) advancing the rigor and impact of AD/ADRD pilot studies in older APAs through Common Data Elements and data-sharing; 3) serving as a national resource for linguistically/culturally tested and validated tools to assess cognition, function, and AD/ADRD care in APA populations. The Research Education Component – led by returning REC lead Dr. Melissa Simon and newly recruited Dr. Mary Mittelman who has served as Education and Psychosocial Core leads for the NYU ADRC – will coordinate all training activities including the 2-year didactic curriculum, the training for Responsible Conduct in Research, and the pairing of Scientist- Mentor with an RCASIA mentor. REC will also introduce an innovative, theory-based model of mentoring consisting of developmental model-based discipline-specific Pods (mentor-mentee dyads in similar discipline, former Scientists as consultants, AnC faculty) and transdisciplinary ethnicity-based Teams (mentor-mentee dyads from diverse disciplines working with participants from same APA subgroup, Community and Lived Advisors, CLRC faculty). Beyond traditional academic metrics, REC will lead baseline training needs assessment of entering Scientists; monitor Pod/Team meetings; attend yearly the Annual RCMAR Meeting with two Scientists; and co-lead the Responsible Conduct of Research session with the Rutgers Center for Population Level Ethics. Three of the projects proposed for funding in Year 1 from underrepresented Scientists involve harmonization of cognitive and social determinant measures across US- based study of older Chinese adults (PINE), China-based study of older Chinese adults (CHARLS), and US- based study of older immigrant and non-immigrant adults (HRS) to identify the effect of background and immigration on cognitive trajectories; analysis of healthcare utilization by older disaggregated Asian Americans with co-morbid AD/ADRD and epilepsy across five U.S. states (using HCUP), followed by group concept mapping to improve care delivery for Chinese and Asian Indian adults with AD/ADRD and epilepsy in NJ; acceptability and feasibility of continuous glucose monitoring to reduce care needs and dyadic conflicts for older Chinese Americans with diabetes and very mild AD/ADRD. Throughout these activities, REC will be closely supported by the Cores and will coordinate yearly with the EAC for continuous evaluation and improvement. Successful completion of the REC Aims will maximize the training and scientific productivity of RCASIA Scientists, develop a pipeline of returning RCASIA Scientists who will in turn serve as mentors or peer mentors, and generate evidence for the effectiveness of the Pod/Team model of mentoring.

抽象的 亚太裔美国人阿尔茨海默病和痴呆症研究资源中心 (RCASIA) 其使命是 1) 增加在 AD/ADRD 相关行为、社会和行为方面代表性不足的科学家 经济研究通过创新的指导和社区互动模式进行生物医学研究； 2) 通过通用数据元素提高旧预约定价安排中 AD/ADRD 试点研究的严谨性和影响 和数据共享；3）作为经过语言/文化测试和验证的工具的国家资源 评估 APA 人群的认知、功能和 AD/ADRD 护理 – 研究教育部分。 由回归的 REC 负责人 Melissa Simon 博士和新招募的 Mary Mittelman 博士领导，后者曾担任 纽约大学 ADRC 的教育和心理社会核心领导 - 将协调所有培训活动，包括 为期 2 年的教学课程、研究负责任行为培训以及科学家配对 REC 还将引入一种创新的、基于理论的指导模式。 由基于发展模型的特定学科 Pod（类似的导师-受训者二人组）组成 学科、前科学家担任顾问、AnC 教员）和跨学科的种族团队 （来自不同学科的导师与受训者二人组与来自同一 APA 小组的参与者一起工作， 除了传统的学术指标之外，REC 将引领基线。 评估新入职科学家的培训需求；监督 Pod/团队每年举行的会议； RCMAR 与两位科学家举行会议；并与 RCMAR 共同主持负责任的研究行为会议 罗格斯人口水平伦理中心提出了第一年资助的三个项目。 代表性不足的科学家参与协调美国各地的认知和社会决定因素措施 基于中国老年人的研究（PINE）、基于中国的中国老年人研究（CHARLS）和美国 基于老年移民和非移民成年人（HRS）的研究，以确定背景和 移民对认知轨迹的影响；老年分类亚洲人的医疗保健利用情况分析 美国五个州患有 AD/ADRD 和癫痫症的美国人（使用 HCUP），随后进行分组 概念图，旨在改善患有 AD/ADRD 和癫痫的华裔和亚裔印度成年人的护理服务 新泽西州；连续血糖监测减少护理需求和二元性的可接受性和可行性 患有糖尿病和轻度 AD/ADRD 的老年华裔美国人的冲突。 REC 将得到核心的密切支持，并将每年与 EAC 协调进行持续评估 REC 目标的成功完成将最大限度地提高培训和科学水平。 提高 RCASIA 科学家的生产力，开发一批回国的 RCASIA 科学家，他们将依次担任 导师或同行导师，并生成 Pod/团队指导模型有效性的证据。
