Subsidiary of Eli Lilly and Company who develops new molecular imaging agents capable of changing the medical management of significant, chronic human diseases by identifying the first stages of pathological change, potentially assisting in earlier diagnosis, and better management and development of new therapies. The company has developed a radioactive tracer called florbetapir (18F). Florbetapir can be used to detect beta amyloid plaques in patients with memory problems using positron emission tomography (PET) scans, making the company the first to bring to market an FDA-approved method that can directly detect this hallmark pathology of Alzheimer's disease.

National institute that leads the federal government in conducting and supporting research on aging and the health and well-being of older people. The Institute seeks to understand the nature of aging and the aging process, and diseases and conditions associated with growing older, in order to extend the healthy, active years of life. In 1974, Congress granted authority to form NIA to provide leadership in aging research, training, health information dissemination, and other programs relevant to aging and older people. Subsequent amendments to this legislation designated NIA as the primary Federal agency on Alzheimer's disease research. Mission The Institute's mission is to: * Support and conduct genetic, biological, clinical, behavioral, social, and economic research on aging. * Foster the development of research and clinician scientists in aging. * Provide research resources. * Disseminate information about aging and advances in research to the public, health care professionals, and the scientific community,among a variety of audiences. Programs NIA sponsors research on aging through extramural and intramural programs. The extramural program funds research and training at universities, hospitals, medical centers, and other public and private organizations nationwide. The intramural program conducts basic and clinical research in Baltimore, MD, and on the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 4, 2023.Consortium that developed brief, standardized and reliable procedures for the evaluation and diagnosis of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias of the elderly. These procedures included data forms, flipbooks, guidebooks, brochures, instruction manuals and demonstration tapes, which are now available for purchase. The CERAD assessment material can be used for research purposes as well as for patient care. CERAD has developed several basic standardized instruments, each consisting of brief forms designed to gather data on normal persons as well as on cognitively impaired or behaviorally disturbed individuals. Such data permit the identification of dementia based on clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral or neuropathological criteria. Staff at participating CERAD sites were trained and certified to administer the assessment instruments and to evaluate the subjects enrolled in the study. Cases and controls were evaluated at entry and annually thereafter including (when possible) autopsy examination of the brain to track the natural progression of AD and to obtain neuropathological confirmation of the clinical diagnosis. The CERAD database has become a major resource for research in Alzheimer's disease. It contains longitudinal data for periods as long as seven years on the natural progression of the disorder as well as information on clinical and neuropsychological changes and neuropathological manifestations., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A European collaborative study to develop and validate new biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. Central in the project is the development of an assay for the measurement of beta amyloid oligomers in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma. In order to validate the assay for beta amyloid oligomers, cerebrospinal fluid and plasma will be repeatedly collected in subjects with Alzheimer's disease, other types of dementia, mild cognitive impairment, and control subjects.

A numeric scale used to quantify the severity of symptoms of dementia (i.e. its stage). Using a structured-interview protocol, a qualified health professional assesses a patient's cognitive and functional performance in six areas: memory, orientation, judgment and problem solving, community affairs, home and hobbies, and personal care. Scores in each of these are combined to obtain a composite score ranging from 0 through 3. (Adapted from Wikipedia)

A clinical research, neuropathological research and collaborative research database that uses data collected from 29 NIA-funded Alzheimer's Disease Centers (ADCs). The database consists of several datasets, and searches may be done on the entire database or on individual datasets. Any researcher, whether affiliated with an ADC or not, may request a data file for analysis or aggregate data tables. Requested aggregate data tables are produced and returned as soon as the queue allows (usually within 1-3 days depending on the complexity).

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.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A community-driven knowledgebase of Alzheimer disease, in which researchers can annotate scientific claims, data, and information, putting these into the context of testable hypotheses and treatment discovery. This SWAN project adds a collection of hand-curated hypotheses to a research paper, which are then related through a set of discourse relationships. They can be browsed and relations between claims, as well as support networks for a specific claim, are made and visualized. AlzSWAN is where you explore scientific knowledge about Alzheimer disease and share your own ideas, comments and questions in a semantically structured system. AlzSWAN is enabled by Semantic Web technology, a new standard for knowledge organization and transfer on the Web. AlzSWAN organizes and manages knowledge using formal knowledge descriptions called ontologies. Using these formal knowledge descriptions, they can tie statements made in scientific publications or on the Web to scientific evidence, biological terminologies, and knowledgebases, and to claims and counterclaims made by other researchers.
