This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $131,813 to Trustees of Boston University to evaluate the effects of poverty alleviation policies on the risk and disparities of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD).

The research objectives are to: 1) integrate data to quantify state-level trends in AD/ADRD prevalence from 2012-2022 and link these estimates to state policy databases to evaluate the impact of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) on AD/ADRD (K99 phase), and 2) use international survey data to quantify the average and heterogeneous effects of social pension policies on cognitive decline (R00 phase). This research is complemented by a career development plan focused on data integration, causal policy evaluation methods, and cross-national comparisons in AD/ADRD and social policy.
