Shannon L. Risacher studies Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, focusing on brain imaging (neuroimaging) and biomarkers that can detect and track the disease before and during its progression. The research combines imaging, genetics, and blood-based markers to understand cognitive decline, and explores factors such as sex differences, vascular risk, and sensory changes. This work aims to improve early detection and characterization of patients, including in the era of new anti-amyloid therapies.
