Cohort study reveals adult socioeconomic status influences brain structure and cognitive decline, highlighting the need for targeted lifespan interventions to reduce racial disparities.

These findings point to a need for interventions that improve SES throughout the lifespan, particularly for Black individuals, who had lower SES than White individuals.
