The...
Brown University received a $191,409 K23 Career Development Award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), effective July 1, 2026 through April 30, 2031. This award supports Dr. Alyssa De Vito's career development as a research assistant professor and clinical neuropsychologist to establish an independent research career focused on neuropsychiatric symptom detection and monitoring in Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's disease-related dementias (AD/ADRD). The primary deliverables include the development and validation of a digital phenotype of affective dysregulation symptoms (depression, anxiety, and irritability) using continuous, real-time data collection from personal devices such as smartphones and smartwatches. The research will establish objective behavioral, psychological, and physiological metrics to improve detection and monitoring of neuropsychiatric symptoms in AD/ADRD populations. Specific project aims include development of the digital phenotype, determination of convergent and criterion validity, and characterization of temporal symptom patterns across a four-week monitoring period in both cognitively intact and cognitively impaired individuals. The award also incorporates a structured training plan to prepare the investigator for independent research leadership in this emerging field.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
