New Faculty Publication Alert:
JCHP is excited to share a new publication that was co-authored by DHSc/PhD faculty member, Bernadette A. Fausto, PhD. This was an international collaboration of fellow researchers affiliated with the Alzheimer’s Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer’s Research and Therapy (ISTAART) Subjective Cognitive Decline and Diversity & Disparities Professional Interest Areas.

This paper examined how culture, race, ethnicity, socioeconomic factors, s*x, gender identity, s*xual orientation, and other aspects of diversity shape the experience and reporting of subjective cognitive decline (SCD), an important potential early marker of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. By synthesizing evidence from diverse populations around the world, it highlighted the need for more inclusive research to improve our understanding of cognitive health and ensure that early detection approaches are relevant and equitable across different communities.

Amazing work, Dr. Fausto!
