Tau Global Conference

About the Conference

Leading experts convened for Tau Global Conference to collaborate and discuss key issues impacting the tau research community. This hybrid conference provided a forum for members of academia, industry, philanthropy and government to:

• Explore tau-related biology, biomarkers, therapeutics and phenotypes.
• Foster talent development and secure funding for the study of tauopathies, with a focus on early career researchers.
• Enhance interdisciplinary collaboration and alignment to address challenges in tau research.

Tau Global Conference 2025 brought together three major Tau-focused conferences (Global Tau, EuroTau and CurePSP Neuro), and was hosted by the Alzheimer’s Association, CurePSP and the Rainwater Charitable Foundation.
