Healthy Older Adults Ages 60-89 Clinical Trial
Official title:
Investigating the Contribution of Peripheral Versus Central Nervous System Dysfunction to Cognitive Aging
This study plans to examine biological bases of cognitive aging. The goals of the study are to better understand how immune system markers, measured in the blood and in the spinal fluid, are related to clinical features of aging over time. The study also aims to better understand how different types of biomarkers may relate to immune health and the aging process. This research may ultimately help us better understand what puts individuals at risk for cognitive decline and for Alzheimer's disease.
