The Institute for Translational Research
Global leaders in cognitive aging and brain health research studies.

Dr. O'Bryant is one of the world's leading experts in blood-based biomarkers.
View StoryITR is dedicated to understanding Alzheimer's disease across all communities. Our research has been evolving since 2012. The Health & Aging Brain Study is the most comprehensive study of Alzheimer's among various communities ever conducted. We are constantly learning and adding to our research and study efforts to battle brain aging diseases.

Our team studies the biology of disease within the context of comprehensive factors because research shows that “who you are”, “where you are from” and “your situation” have biological impacts important on how you age.

The Health and Aging Brain Study - HD
The HABS-HD project is unique and critical to our understanding of the biology of the brain because it examines MCI and AD risk among all populations and communities. This is the first-ever large-scale study of Amyloid/Tau/Neurodegeneration pathological markers (and Framework) among a community-based cohort.
