      • replicate findings already reported in the literature for single site studies such as
        • normal aging related volume loss
        • sex effects and interactions
        • education effects

Study 2 (CFN, BD, RG)

  • *** replicate published findings from our groups and others showing greater volume loss in subjects who convert to AD or who are diagnosed with AD.
      • examine the relation between volume loss and dementia severity (using MMSE as the critical variable) within impaired groups.
      • examine the relation between volume loss and memory as measured by neuropsychological assessments.
