This paper reports on their impact on research enrollment and the lessons learned.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n METHODS<\/jats:title>\n We analyzed attendance data from in\u2010person events for new participants in the Uniform Data Set (UDS) cohort. Using regression modeling, we examined relationships among demographics and time to UDS enrollment.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n \n From 2016 to 2024, 194 adults enrolled in the UDS. They were mostly women (59%), evenly divided between African American (AA; 54%) and non\u2010Hispanic White (NHW; 46%) individuals, and well\u2010educated (median 16 years). Before consent, more AA participants attended events (82.7%\u00a0vs. 42.0%;\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0<\u00a00.0001) and a greater number of events (median 2, interquartile range [IQR]: 1\u20134\u00a0vs. 0, IQR: 0\u20132;\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0<\u00a00.0001) than their NHW peers. Among all race\u2013gender groups, the time to enrollment was shortest for AA men.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n DISCUSSION<\/jats:title>\n Collaborative, community\u2010based, structured outreach initiatives with focused content can influence research engagement.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Highlights<\/jats:title>\n \n \n \n Despite higher dementia risk, older adults from understudied populations have low enrollment in aging and cognition studies, limiting the generalizability of knowledge about biomarkers and related mechanisms.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Besides socioeconomic factors, disproportionate exclusion from screening criteria, less access to expert care, and fewer professional referrals are linked to lower research participation rates.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n Intentional recruitment activities that incorporate educational content and target community input about health challenges can enhance engagement and promote more representative cohorts, including understudied populations.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>\n
