Ongoing Investigations

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.

Principal Investigator  
Principal Investigator's Name: Joseph Buxbaum
Institution: Mount Sinai School of Medicine
Department: Psychiatry
Country:
Proposed Analysis: We are interested in developing networks from imaging data and contrasting them to genetic information to develop imaging SNPs that inform on neuroimaging phenotypes in control, MCI and AD brains. Buxbaum is a member of (and contributor to) ADGC, and the MSSM brain bank has 1000 samples that are being analyzed for molecular networks in AD. The use of genetic data (iSNPs and eSNPs) can help define causal networks underlying AD.
