In this week’s Scientist Highlights, we feature Azizi Seixas, PhD, who became a USC AD RCMAR Scientist in 2021. Dr. Seixas’ RCMAR pilot project is “Modeling and Combating Alzheimer’s Disease Risk Through Sleep and Exercise Among Racial Ethnic Minorities (M-CASE)”. Dr. Seixas’ research broadly focuses on two areas: 1) biological, behavioral, clinical, environmental, and psychosocial determinants of cardiovascular and cardiometabolic disease/conditions, mental health, and brain health (dementia and aging), and 2) developing adaptive, precise, and personalized behavioral interventions to improve health and well-being with the use of machine learning, translational artificial intelligence, and digital technology.
