The overall goal of the USC Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) Research and Education Component (REC) is to support educational activities that complement and/or enhance the training of a workforce to meet the nation’s biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia (ADRD) research, as well as to diversify the workforce.
The seminar series hosts various topics regarding basic science research, clinical research, and career development. With both internal and external speakers, we hope this series will introduce you to exciting Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) research while providing the opportunity to network and collaborate with the ADRC.
Talks are held via Zoom on Fridays from 1–2 PM PST. Please use this Zoom link to attend the seminars: usc.zoom.us/j/96549031381
