http://www.radiology.ucsf.edu/cind

Biomedical technology research center that develops and validates new imaging methods for detecting brain abnormalities in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, as well as epilepsy, depression, and other conditions associated with nerve loss in the brain. As people around the globe live longer, the impact of neurodegenerative diseases is expected to increase further with dire social and economical consequences for societies if no effective treatments are developed soon. The development at CIND is aimed to improve magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The ultimate goal of the scientific program is to identify imaging markers that improve accuracy in diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases at early stages, achieve more reliable prognoses of disease progression, and facilitate the discovery of effective treatment interventions. In addition to addressing the general needs for studying neurodegenerative diseases, another focus of CIND concerns brain diseases associated with military service and war combat, such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), brain trauma, gulf war illness and the long-term effects of these conditions on the mental health of veterans. The symbiosis between CIND and the Veterans Administration Medical Center in San Francisco makes this program uniquely suited to serve military veterans.

http://www.uky.edu/coa/ADC

Alzheimer's Disease Center that serves as the focal point for all Alzheimer's disease-related activities at the University of Kentucky and the Commonwealth of Kentucky providing an environment and core resources that catalyze innovative research, outreach, education, and clinical programs. Their ADC plans to build on its historic strengths and capitalize on emerging opportunities to provide an infrastructure that supports research designed to translate knowledge into therapeutic strategies for AD. They focus on two interrelated themes: Transitions and Translation. Their overall emphasis is to more effectively bridge the gap between basic research and clinical studies by facilitating translational efforts. They also carefully characterize transitions across the spectrum of cognitive impairment (normal/ preclinical AD/ MCI/ dementia), with focus on definition of early disease, and continue to support neuropathology as the bedrock of our center. The Alzheimer Disease Center's 2006-2011 grant award from the National Institute on Aging consists of five cores: * Administrative Core * Clinical Core * Biostatistics and Data Management Core * Neuropathology Core * Education & Information Transfer Core

Data set from six research sites that examined the feasibility and outcomes of the most promising home and community-based intervention approaches for enhancing family caregiving for Alzheimers Disease (AD) and related disorders (ADRD). A unique feature is the examination of AD burdens and interventions in three ethnic groups (Caucasians, Hispanics, and African Americans). Caregiver/care recipient dyads are entered into the study using standardized eligibility criteria. The dyads are randomized at each intervention site using site-specific procedures. Standardized assessment batteries are administered at baseline, 6, 12, and 18 months. The five general types of REACH interventions are: Individual Information and Support strategies that increase caregivers' understanding of dementia and their particular caregiving situation; Group Support and Family Systems efforts that provide caregivers with multiple forms of social support; Psychoeducational and Skill-Based Training approaches that teach caregivers coping and behavioral management strategies; Home-Based Environmental interventions that modify the home environment's effect on the care recipient and support the caregiver; and Enhanced Technology Systems such as home-centered computer/telephone networks that are designed to reduce caregiver distress and isolation. REACH II was funded in 2001 to test a single multi-component intervention among family caregivers of persons with ADRD, building upon the findings of REACH. Recruitment for REACH II was completed in January 2004 with 642 participants entering the study across 5 participating sites.
