PROJECT SUMMARY This application is being submitted in response to the (NOSI) identified as NOT-CA-22-056. Background. The specific aims of the parent grant (RF1AG071024) are to estimate the risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD) associated with wildfire particulate matter (PM2.5) (Aim 1), to identify individual- and area-level susceptibility factors that exacerbate the association between wildfire PM2.5 and MCI and AD/ADRD (Aim 2), and to estimate the risk of MCI and AD/ADRD associated with living near a wildfire disaster and the extent to which specific sub-groups have better or worse outcomes (Aim 3).
