Four Projects

Precision Aging® Network:
MINDCROWD®

Using the web-based MindCrowd® cognitive assessment tool, recruit and characterize the largest, most diverse lifespan study on cognition in the USA.

Lead: Dr. Matthew Huentelman
Translational Genomics Research Institute

co-Lead: Dr. Zhao Chen
University of Arizona

Precision Aging® Network:
HEALTHY MINDS FOR LIFE

Create individualized profiles that predict cognitive and brain health in a cohort of 1620 individuals from Tucson, Miami, Atlanta and Baltimore

Lead: Dr. Lee Ryan
University of Arizona

co-Lead: Dr. Tatjana Rundek
University of Miami

Precision Aging® Network: 
BIOMARKERS OF BRAIN HEALTH

Discover mechanistic-based biomarkers that identify key drivers of brain function, focusing on novel pathways that confer resilience for brain and cognitive health.

Lead: Dr. Paul Worley
Johns Hopkins University

co-Lead: Dr. Meredith Hay
University of Arizona

Precision Aging® Network:
ANALYTIC INTEGRATION

Set a new standard for predictive modeling that will ultimately inform intervention strategies for maintaining brain and cognitive health for individuals.

Lead: Dr. Nicholas Schork
