Critical Path for Alzheimer's Disease (CPAD) Consortium, Critical Path institute, Tucson, AZ, USA.
Background: To help improve the Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutics research and development process, the Critical Path for Alzheimer's Disease (CPAD) Consortium at the Critical Path Institute (C-Path) provides a neutral framework for the drug development industry, regulatory agencies, academia, and patient advocacy organizations to collaborate. CPAD's extensive track record of developing regulatory-grade quantitative drug development tools motivates sponsors to share patient-level data and neuroimages from clinical trials. CPAD leverages these data and uses C-Path's core competencies in data management and standardization, quantitative modeling, and regulatory science to develop tools that help de-risk decision making in AD drug development.

This study aims to provide insights into the experiences of Ugandan caregivers, enhancing understanding of ADRD caregiving.

Deutsches Zentrum für Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen e. V. (DZNE), Rostock, Germany.
Background: Participatory research or patient and public involvement refer to the process of actively involving people with lived experience into the research process to improve its relevance, quality, and impact. In the PART project we aim to establish a sustainable structure to include underrepresented patient groups with neurodegenerative diseases into a patient advisory board for research. As one of our milestones, we conducted a systematic literature review with the aim of examining the impact of participatory research on people involved, such as those with cognitive impairment, caregivers, and researchers.
