"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 @UrbanHealthNow urbanhealthtoday.com/post/engaging-…


Remember how we published a paper last year in @alzdemjournals 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…


ACAD wishes you and your family a beautiful Thanksgiving! 🦃 🍁
