PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT OUTREACH, RECRUITMENT AND EDUCATION CORE Alzheimer s disease (AD) affects 5.6 million Americans regardless of race or ethnicity. Today, more than 38 million Americans are age 65 or older; this number is expected to double in the next 25 years. The oldest old people age 85+ constitute the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population. Currently about four million people, this population could top 19 million by 2050. The racial and ethnic makeup of the older population is also expected to become significantly more diverse. In 2006, 81% of adults age 65+ were Caucasian; by 2050 this is estimated to decrease to 61%40 with approximately 14 million Hispanics, 8.6 million African Americans, and 5.8 million older adults from other racial and ethnic groups. Inequities in income, education, health services availability, and a lack of understanding of specific cultural differences in knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes may contribute to significant disparities in health outcomes and quality of life. This includes not only differences in symptom presentation, but perceptions of disease and care. If we are to truly understand preclinical AD and its myriad to presentations, risk factors, and potential treatment options, then our cohorts that participate in observational studies, clinical trials, biomarker studies, and psychosocial research has to reflect the growing changes in the US population. The overall goal of Outreach, Recruitment, and Education Core (OREC) of the NYU ADC is to provide conduits through community engagement; collaborative efforts with other NYU Centers, ADCs, and the scientific community; and novel approaches to increase the recruitment and retention of culturally diverse research population engaged in annual longitudinal assessments, biomarker research, and autopsy studies. We propose 4 Specific Aims: (1) Facilitate recruitment and retention of participants in ADC longitudinal studies and clinical trials with special emphasis on underrepresented minority groups (URG); (2) Perform outreach activities to inform and raise awareness of lay individuals, with an emphasis on URG concerning brain aging; memory loss; early detection; biomarkers; diagnostic, treatment and care options; and promote favorable attitudes towards research participation; (3) Maintain and grow educational initiatives and training opportunities; (4) Evaluate the effectiveness of our recruitment, outreach, training and educational activities. The Core coordinates educational offerings for all ADC stakeholders, from our research participants and their family members, to medical students, residents and fellows rotating through the ADC, to faculty and staff of the University, to the general public and healthcare professionals in our community and beyond, as well as an increasing number of visiting foreign scholars.

项目摘要/摘要 外展，招聘和教育核心 阿尔茨海默氏病（AD）影响560万美国人，而不论种族或种族如何。今天，超过38 百万美国人年龄在65岁或以上；预计在未来25年内这个数字将翻一番。最古老的 85岁以上的人们构成了美国人口中增长最快的部分。目前约为400万 人们，到2050年，这个人口可能会超过1900万。老年人口的种族和民族构成是 也有望变得更加多样化。 2006年，有81％的65岁以上的成年人是高加索人。到2050年 据估计，这将降至61％40，大约1400万西班牙裔，860万非裔美国人， 来自其他种族和族裔的580万老年人。收入，教育，卫生服务的不平等 可用性，以及对知识，信念和态度的特定文化差异的了解可能 导致健康成果和生活质量的重大差异。这不仅包括差异 症状表现，但对疾病和护理的看法。如果我们要真正了解临床前广告及其 无数的演讲，风险因素和潜在的治疗方案，然后参与我们的同伙 观察性研究，临床试验，生物标志物研究和心理社会研究必须反映出不断增长的 美国人口的变化。外展，招聘和教育核心（OREC）的总体目标 纽约大学ADC将通过社区参与提供通道；与其他纽约大学中心的合作努力， ADC和科学界；以及增加招募和保留的新方法 参与年度纵向评估，生物标志物研究和 尸检研究。我们提出了4个具体目标：（1）促进和保留参与者ADC 纵向研究和临床试验特别强调了代表性不足的少数群体（URG）； （2） 进行外展活动，以告知和提高对外行人的认识，重点是 关于大脑衰老；记忆丧失；早期检测；生物标志物；诊断，治疗和护理选择；和 促进对研究参与的有利态度； （3）维护和发展教育计划和 培训机会； （4）评估我们招募，外展，培训和教育的有效性 活动。我们的研究参与者的核心协调所有ADC利益相关者的教育产品 以及他们的家人，向医学生，居民和研究员旋转ADC，教师和 该大学的员工，我们社区及其他地区的公众和医疗保健专业人员 作为越来越多的来访的外国学者。
