How does compare

• to the general population (especially those 65 and older)?

• to people with Alzheimer’s and other dementias?

• to caregivers for people with Alzheimer’s and

other dementias?

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Rest of the slides will provide some answers to these questions. For TM data, I used FY13 numbers throughout.

Presentation Notes
I think this will surprise most people.

Vast majority of people with AD are >65, so this slide shows the racial/ethnic makeup of the population aged 65+.

Education

FY 2013 data

Presenter
Presentation Notes
(Feel free to delete this slide. I don’t have great data on education in older adults or in those with dementia, so this just includes caregivers.) How TM profiles compare to caregivers for people with dementia, in terms of education. TM profiles are far better educated: almost 75% have at least some college.

The next generation of TrialMatch will be:

• Smarter • Responsive & Engaging • Personalized • Diverse
