The Education and Information Transfer Core provides both training in basic science and clinical aspects of Alzheimer's disease, and information transfer within the ADRC, to health professional in the community, to caregivers and to the general public. The overall objective of research training is to increase the number of scientists focusing their research on Alzheimer's disease. These scientists are trained mainly through traditional pre- and post-doctoral training programs in which the training participates directly in a research project. In addition, this Core provides two on-going seminars on AD research, and support to a number of ongoing research activities involving dementia and aging research at UCSD: the Graduate Program in Neurosciences, the Graduate Program in Biomedical Sciences, the Gero-Psychiatry Unit at the VA Medical Center, and the Institute for Research on Aging lecture series. This support includes speakers and seminars, information, coordinating schedules for conferences and courses, and access for students, post-doctoral fellows, and active scientists to interface with or directly participate in the ADRC's research activities. We train between 60 and 70 researchers per five year grant cycle. The overall objectives in information transfer are to improve the skills of health care professionals in dealing with Alzheimer's disease,. to educate the general public about Alzheimer's disease, and to provide information about the ADRC activities and support to caregivers. Activities include: 1. A two-week Mini-residency program for practicing health care professionals. Participants learn from one-on-one interactions with ADRC faculty and actual AD patients. 2. An accredited annual CME conference, training both professionals and caregivers. Attendance has increased, with more than 300 professionals at our most recent conference. 3. Health professional, caregiver and public education by ADRC staff though numerous lectures, conferences and seminars and in-service training about research advances, diagnosis, and management of AD (reaching an audience of over 10,000, not including television and radio). 4. In addition to continuing these activities, a special attempt will be made to educate Hispanic physicians and the local Hispanic community about AD, with the goals of providing better diagnosis and care of current D victims, as well as increasing minority participation in AD research.

教育和信息传递核心提供阿尔茨海默病基础科学和临床方面的培训，并在ADRC内部向社区卫生专业人员、护理人员和公众传递信息。研究培训的总体目标是增加专注于阿尔茨海默病研究的科学家人数。这些科学家主要通过传统的博士前和博士后培训项目进行培训，这些培训直接参与研究项目。此外，该核心还提供了两个正在进行的关于阿尔茨海默病研究的研讨会，并支持加州大学圣地亚哥分校正在进行的一些涉及痴呆症和衰老研究的研究活动：神经科学研究生课程、生物医学科学研究生课程、退伍军人医疗中心老年精神病学单元和衰老研究学院系列讲座。这种支持包括演讲者和研讨会，信息，协调会议和课程的时间表，以及学生，博士后研究员和活跃的科学家与ADRC的研究活动交互或直接参与的机会。我们每5年资助周期培训60到70名研究人员。信息传递的总体目标是提高保健专业人员处理阿尔茨海默病的技能。教育公众有关阿尔茨海默病的知识，并向护理人员提供有关ADRC活动和支持的信息。活动包括：1。为期两周的实习医疗保健专业人员迷你实习计划。参与者通过与ADRC教师和实际AD患者的一对一互动学习。2. 经过认证的年度CME会议，培训专业人员和护理人员。出席人数有所增加，最近一次会议有300多名专业人士参加。3. 卫生专业人员、护理人员和ADRC工作人员通过大量关于AD研究进展、诊断和管理的讲座、会议和研讨会以及在职培训进行公众教育（受众超过10,000人，不包括电视和广播）。4. 除了继续这些活动外，还将特别尝试对西班牙裔医生和当地西班牙裔社区进行阿尔茨海默病的教育，目的是为目前的D受害者提供更好的诊断和护理，并增加少数民族对阿尔茨海默病研究的参与。
