Collaboration
Facilitating and fostering high-quality research collaborations is one of the central pillars of the Adult Changes in Thought (ACT) Study.
We conduct research and gather rich data centered on understanding and promoting healthy cognitive and functional aging. It is our vision to serve as an innovative and enduring resource that contributes to cutting-edge research in healthy aging. To that end, we work closely with many research partners to maximize the contributions of our research participants by sharing data widely and supporting new research collaborations whenever feasible.
