ADNI is governed by a Steering Committee comprised of all Core leaders, Site PIs, NIA staff, and industry observers who are representatives of the companies contributing funding to ADNI. The ADNI Steering Committee Meetings take place annually in the spring and provides an opportunity for the ADNI Health Equity Scholars to network with experts in the field as well as present about their Health Equity Scholars Program research project.
Please join us in congratulating the ADNI Cohort II Scholars on their Flash Talk presentations at the 2024 ADNI Steering Committee Meeting in Austin, TX on May 8th.
