Robert C. Barber is a Senior Professor at the University of North Texas Health Science Center. His research focuses on the genetics and epidemiology of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, with a particular emphasis on health disparities among diverse populations. His recent work includes multi-ancestry genome-wide meta-analyses identifying novel risk loci, characterization of plasma AT(N) biomarkers, and investigations into the effects of APOE variants and premorbid IQ on cognitive decline. He leads the Health and Aging Brain Study–Health Disparities (HABS-HD) cohort, contributing to scalable neuroimaging quality control and neuronal extracellular vesicle biomarker discovery.
