Abstract
Nber coordinating center on the economics of ad/adrd prevention, treatment, and care this application proposes to establish a coordinating center for economic research on alzheimer's disease (ad) and ad-related dementia (adrd) at the national bureau of economic research (nber). The consortium will encompass the 4-5 research project (R01) grants that are awarded under the NIA's companion program announcement on "consortium for economic research on ad/adrd prevention, treatment, and care;" newly funded center studies selected annually from a national competition and supported under the center's research project core; the work of early career scholars selected for the center's mentored scholars program; the nber's ongoing and separately-funded projects on the economics of adrd; and selected other research on adrd that may be developed in the future. The underlying research projects that will be coordinated through the nber center will be organized, at least initially, around four overarching themes: (1) emerging challenges in caregiving for people with adrd, (2) understanding adrd diagnosis and progression, (3) prevention and treatment of adrd, and (4) disparities in healthcare for patients with adrd. In cooperation with NIA, we will foster collaboration and synergies across consortium member research projects, initiate new high-impact research projects that apply economic methods to understanding and improving the treatment and care for people with adrd; expand the network of researchers studying the economics of adrd; and disseminate findings to key stakeholders to support policymaking. An administrative core will provide intellectual leadership and governance; centralized administrative, communications, and research support; support of early career investigators; and ongoing monitoring of performance metrics though a program tracking plan. A research projects core will support cutting edge research projects on the economics of adrd prevention, treatment, and care. A stakeholder engagement core will assure that the research projects are informed by the on the ground experience of those working to prevent, treat and care for people living with adrd and their families and caregivers. A closely related translation core will encourage the application of findings from consortium research in practical uses that improve the health and wellbeing of people living with ad/adrd and their families; disseminating findings and research resources, and convening an annual conference in washington, DC.
