Achieving greater diversity and inclusion in global dementia research requires the inclusion of underrepresented geographic, ethnic and regional populations such as indigenous Africans. The ADSP is a collaborative global initiative that includes sample collection across diverse populations, data generation including whole genome sequencing in over 120,000 individuals and multi-omics, the collating of rich phenotypic information, data harmonization, and unified data management and quality control. These datasets are being analyzed to accelerate our understanding of AD neurobiology with implications for better risk prediction and discovery of novel precision diagnostics and therapeutics.
