TOMORROW! Our very own Dr. Van Ta Park will be discussing ACAD and other efforts to increase equity in #dementia research with Being Patient Register below! beingpatient.com/event/dr-van-t…

Remember how we published a paper last year in Alzheimer's & Dementia Journals discussing how ACAD was formed to address the lack of diversity in #alzresearch ? Read our interview with Pei-Chuan Ho, PhD to discuss that landmark paper and what we plan to do next! acadstudy.org/our-progress-a…

"We hope researchers will realize that #AANHPI communities do want to engage in research if you outreach in the language that they speak in the communities they live" Dr. Van Park discussed CARE_registry and ACAD in a roundtable with Urban Health Today urbanhealthtoday.com/post/engaging-…
