Center for Advancing Sociodemographic and Economic Study of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (CeASES-ADRD)

阿尔茨海默病社会人口学和经济研究中心的使命 和相关痴呆症（CeASES-ADRD）是推进创新的社会科学ADRD研究， 提高社会科学研究人员的知识和技术能力，扩大和多样化社会科学研究领域， 一组在该领域工作的研究人员，传播资源和交流研究结果， 冲击CeASES-ADRD的目标研究主题是ADRD的社会和经济负担 课程，以及国家和国际的趋势和预测的ADRD。针对这些问题的研究 主题将填补关键的研究空白，解决ADRD的一些最紧迫和直接的挑战， 并解决多个NIA战略方向。CeASES‐ADRD建立了一套独特的相互关联的 每年举办超过2.5天的项目，以推进研究，建立网络和减少 社会科学家参与创新ADRD研究的障碍。其中包括，ADRD的科学， 社会科学家计划，网络会议的科学介绍，讨论和网络 建筑以及方法和技术讲习班。它结合了一套核心的多学科 在专题领域、方法和技术领域具有互补研究专长的研究人员 技能组合，并在使用无数的人口水平，纵向数据集。此外，这些研究人员 在领导和指导方面具有优势，以支持和发展下一代ADRD社会 科学研究人员。CeASES-ADRD有一个领导结构，汇集了来自 南加州大学、得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校和斯坦福大学，他们有NIH资助的 社会科学ADRD研究的研究组合，是具有领先经验的长期合作者 他们成功地建立了网络并指导了不同的学者。停止- ADRD通过USC Schaeffer中心利用额外的关键资源，包括外部 负责交流和传播调查结果的事务人员， 提供技术支持和专业知识，数据库管理员支持使用其丰富的数据库。 CeASES-ADRD合作研究人员包括多个NIA资助中心的主任，包括 少数民族老龄化研究资源中心，阿尔茨海默病研究中心和罗伊巴尔 中心在卫生政策模拟网络建设和推动创新科学。

The mission of the Center for Advancing Sociodemographic and Economic Study of Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (CeASES‐ADRD) is to advance innovative social science ADRD research, to increase knowledge and technical capability of social science researchers, to broaden and diversify the set of researchers working in the field and, to disseminate resources and communicate findings for impact. CeASES‐ADRD targeted research themes are social and economic burden of ADRD over the life course, and national and international trends and projections of ADRD. Research addressing these themes will fill key research gaps, tackle some of the most pressing and immediate challenges of ADRD, and address multiple NIA Strategic Directions. CeASES‐ADRD builds a unique set of interrelated programs hosted over 2.5 days each year for advancing research, building networks and reducing barriers to social scientists engaging in innovative ADRD research. These include, Science of ADRD for Social Scientists program, network meetings for scientific presentations, discussions and network building, and methodological and technical workshops. It unites a core set of multidisciplinary researchers with complementary research expertise in the thematic areas, methodological and technical skill sets, and in the use of myriad population level, longitudinal data sets. In addition, these researchers have strengths in leadership and mentorship to support and grow the next generation of ADRD social science researchers. CeASES‐ADRD has a leadership structure that brings together researchers from University of Southern California, University of Texas, Austin, and Stanford, who have NIH‐funded research portfolios of social science ADRD research, are long‐time collaborators with experience leading large centers and who have had success building networks and mentoring diverse scholars. CeASES‐ ADRD utilizes additional key resources available to it through USC Schaeffer Center including an external affairs staff for communication and dissemination of findings, a research programming staff for providing technical support and expertise, a data librarian for supporting use of its rich data holdings. CeASES‐ADRD collaborating researchers include directors of multiple NIA‐funded Centers including a Resource Center for Minority Aging Research, an Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and a Roybal Center in Health Policy Simulation for network building and driving innovative science.
