A new clinical trial being conducted at the University of Kentucky Sanders-Brown Center on Aging (SBCoA) and the UK Alzheimer’s Disease Center (ADC) may signal new hope in the future for those who might be afflicted with the devastating disease. Taking laboratory research pioneered at SBCoA and the associated UK ADC into human trials, the federally-funded research project will examine the therapeutic potential of microRNAs to delay or prevent Alzheimer’s disease.

Congratulations to Dr. Nikki Stone, DMD, Mobile Dental Outreach Director for UK North Fork Valley! Dr. Stone's mobile outreach program was recently recognized by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation as an innovative model for providing preventive oral health services at Head Start programs and elementary schools in Eastern KY.

eRA Information: Coming Soon the ALL NEW Electronic Research Administration Web Site
Monday, November 18, 2013

It has been six months since we started the redesign of the Electronic Research Administration (eRA) web site. We are excited to announce that on Thursday, November 21, we will launch the new design!     

The new design is more graphical, focusing on processes.  The less text heavy approach is designed to make the pages easier to navigate, and less overwhelming.
