THE ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE NEUROIMAGING INITIATIVE: The National Institute on Aging (NIA) invites applications from qualified institutions for a Cooperative Agreement (UO1) to establish a Coordinating Center (CC) together with a Neuroimaging Center (NC) and a consortium of clinical sites for the NIA Neuroimaging Initiative. The purpose of this Initiative, planned as a public-private partnership, is to develop a multi-site, longitudinal, prospective, naturalistic study of normal cognitive aging, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and early Alzheimer's disease (AD) as a public domain research resource to facilitate the scientific evaluation of neuroimaging (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], positron emission tomography [PET]), and other biomarkers for the onset and progression of MCI and AD. A primary goal is to identify the biomarkers of disease progression that are most promising for use as surrogate endpoints in phase 2 and 3 clinical trials for the prevention and treatment of AD. An essential feature of this initiative is that the clinical, neuropsychological, imaging, and biological data and samples will be made available to all qualified scientific investigators at time intervals to be determined by the Steering Committee and estimated to be every 3-6 months, with raw data available more frequently. The period of support for the Neuroimaging Initiative will be five years.
