The ADNI team is pleased to announce the formation of the ADNI Diversity Taskforce: an initiative to utilize ADNI’s financial resources to accelerate enrollment of under-represented minorities (URMs) during the final two years of ADNI3, in preparation for ADNI4.

The charge of the Taskforce is to:

  1. Develop strategies for significantly increasing the rate of recruitment of URMs into ADNI3 beginning immediately
  2. Analyze and publish existing ADNI data related to diversity and health disparities
  3. Generate Scientific aims relevant to health disparities for ADNI4

All ADNI leaders and staff are invited to provide ideas and suggestions and indicate any interest in participating in this effort by contacting Ozioma Okonkwo ozioma@medicine.wisc.edu and Monica Rivera Mindt riveramindt@fordham.edu.
