This work was made possible by funding from the National Institute on Aging of an American Indian Satellite awarded to the Alzheimer's Disease Center at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, and by the cooperation of the Cherokee Nation, the Dallas Urban Intertribal Center, and the Choctaw Nation.
