Plasma proteomic signatures of physical activity and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias
Description: PROJECT NARRATIVE This research will apply and compare machine-learning methods to derive plasma proteomic signatures of physical activity and examine them in relation to ADRD, yielding insight into the molecular mechanisms and biological processes through which physical activity may delay or prevent ADRD. This research may result in proteomic biomarkers of physical activity that measure the effect of physical activity to delay or prevent ADRD and suggest potential proteomic intervention targets.
