ADNI data is made available to researchers around the world. As such, there are many active research projects accessing and applying the shared ADNI data. To further encourage Alzheimer’s disease research collaboration, and to help prevent duplicate efforts, the list below shows the specific research focus of the active ADNI investigations. This information is requested annually as a requirement for data access.

| Proposed Analysis: | Development of automated diagnostic methods discriminating control subjects, stable/progressive mild cognitive and Alzheimer's disease patients using structural brain images. The projects aims in addition to interpret the classification criteria to discrimination criteria to better understand the neuropathological discrimination criteria. In contrast to classical voxel-based morphometry, the methods used will be multivariate, therefore able to represent more complex patterns of changes. |
