Milestone 2.C

Create research programs on epigenetics to understand how genetic and environmental factors interact across the lifespan to influence brain aging and risk for disease and to identify potential targets for treatment and prevention.

Success Criteria

  • Launch at least 6 new projects focused on exploring epigenetic mechanisms that underlie the heterogeneity of AD and AD-related dementias and the causal role of the exposome in brain aging and AD/ADRD.
