Description

Ioannis Pappas, Cally Xiao, Michael E Griswold, Mukta Phatak, and Arthur W Toga describe a shared platform approach for Alzheimer's research. Their 2025 paper tackles a known barrier: rich patient data are hard to share because of ownership rights and strict rules. Yet sharing could speed up work on markers, treatments, and prevention.

Two platforms, GAAIN and the AD Workbench, let researchers query data where it sits instead of moving it. Users get tools close to working with raw data, at no cost. As a test case, the team runs an analysis of the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. That study is the longest-running study of human aging in the United States.
