The New NACC Website!
Navigating the New NACC Website
The redesigned NACC website was developed to better support the evolving needs of the ADRC Program and the broader AD/ADRD research community by making information easier to find, navigate, and use. Our goals were to clearly organize NACC’s tools, data resources, and guidance around how users actually engage with them, streamline access to key platforms such as the Data Front Door and ADRC Portals, and provide timely, transparent updates as our infrastructure continues to grow. As part of this effort, we launched the NACC Navigator, which serves as both a blog and a central communication hub for ADRC announcements, feature updates, and important program information, alongside stories that highlight how NACC data and collaboration are advancing research across the network.
The new website is organized into six primary sections, each designed to serve a distinct purpose while working together as an integrated whole.
About provides an overview of NACC’s mission, role, and history within the NIA-funded ADRC Program. This section outlines how NACC supports data coordination, collaboration, and communication across the national network, describes our leadership and organizational structure, and situates NACC’s work within the broader AD/ADRD research ecosystem.
Impact highlights how NACC data, standards, and infrastructure are advancing scientific discovery and translation. This section features key metrics, publications, and examples of how researchers use NACC resources, helping users understand the scale, reach, and real-world value of the ADRC Program and the research it enables.
ADRC Tools is designed specifically for ADRC investigators, administrators, and staff. It provides centralized access to operational platforms and guidance, including the ADRC Portals, UDS and UDSv4 resources, the Electronic Data Capture and Submission system, and related documentation. By consolidating these tools in one place, this section supports efficient data submission, participant management, and compliance with program-wide standards.
Researcher Resources serves the entire research community by organizing access to NACC data and analytic support. Here, users can learn how to request data through the Data Front Door, explore available data modalities, review guidance for data use, and find training materials and documentation that support effective and responsible use of NACC resources.
Events brings together information on NACC-hosted and NACC-supported meetings, webinars, and training opportunities. This section includes details on the semiannual ADRC Meetings, and upcoming webinars, making it easier for users to stay informed and engaged with program-wide activities and scientific updates.
Get Involved focuses on engagement and participation across the ADRC Program and beyond. This section highlights opportunities to connect with NACC, participate in initiatives, and stay informed, reinforcing NACC’s role as a connector across the research community.
Together, these six sections reflect NACC’s commitment to clarity, transparency, and usability, and provide a structured entry point into the data, tools, and collaborations that support AD/ADRD research nationwide.
