Researchers from the CANE (Cognitive Aging & Neuropsychological Equity) Lab: Stacey Moeller (Clinical Psychology), Katie Singsank (Clinical Psychology), Grace Goodwin (Clinical Psychology), and Samantha John (Brain Health), along with collaborators, published a study in Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions titled, "Multiracial participants in Alzheimer's research: Scoping review and recommendations."

The scoping review examined how Multiracial participants have been represented in Alzheimer's disease (AD) research involving neuropsychological data. Of 855 studies identified, only 19 reported data from identifiable Multiracial participants, while many others used vague or undefined racial categories or focused exclusively on monoracial groups. The findings highlight a significant gap in the inclusion and reporting of Multiracial participants in AD research, limiting efforts to better understand Alzheimer's disease across diverse populations. The authors provide recommendations to improve the identification, reporting, and inclusion of Multiracial participants and emphasize the importance of adapting research practices to reflect the growing and increasingly diverse U.S. population.
