Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) Investigator: Thomas Wisniewski, MD
Since 1973, the ADRC has been at the forefront of research on memory problems attributed to normal aging, and a pioneer in the diagnosis, causes and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the NYU ADRC has contributed many significant findings that help clinicians, research scientists, and older adults and their families gain a better understanding of the causes and treatments of Alzheimer's disease.
The goal of this study is to research normal brain aging process and to improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Participants must be at least 65 years old and in good general health. Annual visits consist of a neurological exam, memory tests and blood analysis. Neuroimaging scans take place every two years. Participants receive overall feedback from each annual evaluation and a small stipend.

Brain Fog Biomarkers Following SARS-COV-2 Infection Investigator: Thomas Wisniewski, MD
The purpose of this study is to examine whether or not individuals who were previously diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2, or COVID-19, have greater cognitive and biomarker changes over five years than those individuals who did not have COVID-19. Participants will have demographic and medical history collected, along with cognitive testing, blood testing, gait measurements, olfactory testing and a brain MRI. Participants will be tested every 12 months over the course of 5 years, and undergo a total of three brain MRIs. Each visit will last approximately 6 hours (interviews and cognitive testing) and each MRI is approximately 45 minutes.

Transcranial Photobiomodulation for Alzheimer's Disease (TRAP-AD) Investigator: Dan Iosifescu, MD, MSc; Ricardo Osorio, MD; Paolo Cassano, MD, PhD
TRAP-AD is a research study investigating if an experimental treatment device will lead to improvement in cognition in adults with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI). The treatment, transcranial photobiomodulation (t-PBM), uses near-infrared light therapy to stimulate certain parts of the brain that are thought to be affected in memory impairment. Infrared energy is a form of light not visible to the human eye. Researchers hope to determine the effectiveness of t-PBM for improving cognition in adults with aMCI.

Improving Oral Health for Persons with Mild Dementia Investigator: Bei Wu, PhD
Good oral health promotes good general health, and poor oral health may be associated with a higher risk of cognitive decline. The Oral Health Study aims to improve oral health and reduce risk of oral health problems in people with memory problems and can help educate caregivers how to help their loved one. Participants receive 3 in-home visits by an Oral Health Evaluator, learn about oral health, and receive financial compensation. The study is seeking people diagnosed with mild dementia who live with a caregiver. Participants must be age 60 with at least 4 natural teeth and be able to brush their own teeth.

Resolvant Investigator: Omonigho M. Bubu, MD, MPH, PhD
This research study is being done to collect information about sleep as a potential risk factor that may increase Alzheimer's disease burden particularly in African-Americans. We will do this through an in-lab sleep study and one Tau PET-MR scan of your brain that requires the injection of small amounts of a radioactive PI2620 tracer or MK-6240 tracer. This is an investigational tracer. This means it hasn't been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use outside of studies like this. More information about this scan will be provided later in the consent form. Tau is one of the brain markers or lesions that can be found in the brain of Alzheimer's disease. We hope to identify the mechanisms by which age-related sleep changes contribute to brain loss in Alzheimer's Disease in normal elderly patients.

No
Sleep AWARE Investigator: Ricardo Osorio, MD
Sleep AWARE is a research study funded by the National Institutes of Health and the National Institutes for Aging. We will examine how race, genes, and other factors impact an individual's risk for developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). Poor sleep is thought to contribute to increased risk for developing AD. African Americans in particular have lower quality sleep and less sleep duration and thus may be at greater risk for AD. Researchers hope to compare sleep characteristics and their effects on Alzheimer's disease risk among African Americans and non-Hispanic Whites.

Understanding CSF Clearance in Normal Aging and Alzheimer's Brains Through Dynamic Sodium MRI Investigator: Yongxian Qian, PhD
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays a major role in cleaning waste proteins (including amyloid-beta) from the brain. Efficiency of CSF clearance may decrease with age, leading to accumulation of amyloid-beta and formation of the plagues that are toxic to neurons and interrupt communication between them. We use state-of-the-art sodium MRI technologies to non-invasively measure dynamics of the CSF flow inside the brain, and quantify its changes with aging, its difference between normal and AD patients, and its alterations during sleep. This study is funded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). People at age 25-120 years (either in normal cognition or already diagnosed as early AD) are encouraged to participate in the study as volunteers for two sessions of MRI scans (i.e., 1.0 hour MRI in the morning and 1.5 hours MRI in the afternoon for sleep monitored by EEG), with no injection of contrast materials.

Mechanisms of Age-Related White Matter Hyperintensities: Insights from Advanced MRI Investigator: Yulin Ge, MD
Small vessel disease (SVD) is an age-related diffuse white matter disease associated with white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) seen on brain MRI scans. SVD is a common cause of vascular cognitive impairment in the elderly. In this study, we will characterize the underlying vascular pathophysiological changes of WMHs using non-invasive and multimodal MRI measures and follow them over a period of 2.5 years in an elderly population with diverse WMH burdens. This study will include 160 participants for two visits consisting of a single 1-hour 3T MRI at each visit without administration of contrast agent. You may participate in this study if you are 65-85 years old and have a recent clinical MRI indicating you have white matter lesions present in your brain on the previous MRI.

Neurotrack Test Validation
PI: Martin Sadowski, MD, PhD
Detection of Alzheimer's disease during its early (preclinical) stage has become very important for developing treatments to slow down or prevent the disease. Biomarkers, such as the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan for detecting the shrinkage of brain regions, have been developed to detect Alzheimer-related brain pathology, but these methods are invasive, expensive or both. This study will validate new computer memory and thinking tests (known as cognitive tasks) that may detect memory problems in the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's when there are no symptoms. Participants will perform the cognitive tasks and receive an MRI scan. Performance on the cognitive tasks will be compared to the scan results to discover if the tests can evaluate people at risk for developing Alzheimer's. You may join this study if you are between the ages of 60 to 85, inclusive and are in general good health.
