Question Posted 03/07/14:
In viewing the Biospecimen Data description, the first paragraph includes this statement "Interested investigators, whether associated with an ADNI site or not, are encouraged to apply for use of this limited resource". Is this indicating that the actual blood and other samples are still available for further analyses? Or is this simply indicating that the data from previous analyses are available for use? Thank you.
