Brief Summary:
The researchers are trying to determine whether ovarian hormones are associated with aging processes and with the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease in women.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Alzheimer Disease Diagnostic Test: 18-F-Flortaucipir Phase 4

Detailed Description:
The proposed project will enroll 200 women. Each women will have one clinic visit consisting of cognitive testing, tests of physical function, questionnaires, and a blood draw. All women will also undergo clinical neuroimaging, which includes structural MRI, β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition on PET as a biomarker of Aβ pathology, and tau deposition on PET as a marker of neurofibrillary tangles using AV-1451.
