Requesting The University Of Hawaii To Explore The Feasibility Of Establishing An Alzheimer's Disease Research Center And Identify The Requirements For Receiving Federal Funding From The National Institute On Aging For Alzheimer's Disease Research.
Impact
If established, the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center at the University of Hawaii could significantly advance scientific research, enhance diagnosis and treatment options, and improve care for those afflicted by Alzheimer's disease. Additionally, this initiative would leverage Hawaii's unique demographics, with a significant Asian American and Pacific Islander population, to conduct research reflecting these communities' genetic and cultural factors. Such research could provide insights that differ from those sourced in mainland research centers.
Summary
Senate Resolution 163 requests the University of Hawaii to explore the feasibility of establishing an Alzheimer's Disease Research Center and to identify the requirements for receiving federal funding from the National Institute on Aging (NIA). Alzheimer's disease is a significant issue affecting millions, including many residents in Hawaii, prompting the need for targeted research and better care options. The resolution highlights that NIA-designated centers serve as crucial resources for research and the development of effective prevention, diagnosis, care, and therapy for Alzheimer's and related dementias.
Contention
The resolution outlines several specific requests from the University of Hawaii, including investigating existing research capabilities and infrastructure, assessing potential benefits and impacts, and identifying federal funding criteria. The comprehensive plan would involve phased steps, including feasibility assessments, infrastructure development, and community engagement. One notable point of contention that may arise in discussions is the allocation of resources and priorities within the university to support this initiative, alongside existing commitments.
