Prof Richard SCHULZ
REACH II首席研究員
Dr Schulz has spent most of his career doing research and writing on adult development and aging. His work has focused on social-psychological aspects of aging, including the impact of disabling late life disease on patients and their families. He has been funded by the National Institutes of Health for more than three decades to conduct descriptive longitudinal and intervention research on diverse older populations representing illnesses such as cancer, spinal cord injury, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, and arthritis.
He served as principal investigator of the coordinating center for the NIA funded multi-site dementia caregiving intervention trial, REACH (Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer's Caregiver Health). REACH provided some of the most comprehensive and systematic information available to date about Alzheimer caregivers. |
