UC Davis Receives NIH Grant to Study Latino Dementia Risk
UC Davis has been awarded nearly $16 million by the National Institute of Health to investigate the higher risk of dementia among Latinos. The study aims to uncover the factors contributing to this increased risk, potentially leading to targeted interventions and improved healthcare strategies for Latino communities. The research will focus on understanding the biological, social, and environmental influences on brain health within this demographic, addressing a critical gap in dementia research.
