Australian Imaging Biomarkers & Lifestyle Flagship Study of Ageing (AIBL) is a large-scale research initiative to discover which biomarkers, cognitive characteristics, and health and lifestyle factors determine subsequent development of symptomatic Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). It contains prospective longitudinal study of cognition from more than 4.5 years and biomarker, cognitive, clinical, and imaging data of more than 1000 participants including patients with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and healthy volunteers. Since its launch in 2006, AIBL has been widely used in studies related to research on early detection of AD, identification of important biomarkers for AD, and new therapies and treatments for AD. The AIBL data are available only to authorized users, but a subset of data (subjects with MR and PET) is available through the ADNI (Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative).
