Overview
The Alzheimer's Association research grants program supports core goals of our mission. Thanks to our generous donors, the Association has become the largest private, nonprofit funder of Alzheimer research. Since awarding its first grants in 1982, the Association has committed over $220 million to more than 1,600 best-of-field grant proposals.

Areas of focus are designed to elicit proposals spanning the entire spectrum of dementia research, from basic science to social and behavioral investigations.
