Read our Alzheimer's Disease research guide →This is a long-term research study that tracks brain health in people aged 55 and older in the Shenzhen area. Researchers will use memory tests, brain scans, and blood tests to understand how the brain ages and how memory problems develop. The study aims to identify early warning signs that could help catch memory loss before it becomes severe.
Memory loss and Alzheimer's disease are growing problems in aging populations, but we still don't fully understand how and why they develop. This study will help researchers identify early changes in the brain so doctors can eventually intervene sooner and possibly prevent or slow memory loss.

You would complete baseline visits within three months that include memory and thinking tests, blood draws, and possibly brain scans and spinal fluid collection. Then, you would return annually for memory tests and blood work, and every two years for brain imaging. The entire study runs from 2021 through 2026, so you would be involved for several years, with visits happening regularly to track how your brain health changes over time.
