RRI SCIENTISTS are tackling
the public health crisis of dementia on
multiple fronts, through studies on the
prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of
dementias and cognitive decline. Our
research aims to determine the causes
of cognitive decline in older adults,
identifies potential predictors and
approaches for the treatment of
age-related brain disorders, and
illuminates lifestyle practices that
will protect individuals' brain health.
