The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $4,444,978 Project Grant under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to the Regents of the University of Michigan, doing business as the University of Michigan, for a project titled "Non-Educational Sources of Later-Life Cognitive Reserve and Resilience Among Older Adults With and Without Formal Education in India". The project aims to empirically characterize cognitive reserve and identify modifiable factors, such as employment, social relationships, and social engagement, that may promote cognitive reserve and reduce Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) risk among older adults in India with and without formal education. The project will utilize data from the Longitudinal Study of Aging in India: Diagnostic Assessment of Dementia (LASI-DAD) and involve collaboration with sub-awardees at The Johns Hopkins University and the University of Southern California to support the study design, data collection, and analysis.
