The Alzheimer’s Association International Conference® (AAIC®) is the world’s largest and most influential international meeting dedicated to advancing dementia science. Leading researchers, clinicians, public health experts and others gather each July to share findings that hold promise to improve dementia risk reduction, diagnosis, disease monitoring, treatment, care and support.

The Global Immersion Experience (GIE) offers philanthropists exclusive access to AAIC. This one-of-a-kind, multiday event offers a variety of curated activities that provide an inside look at the most promising developments in dementia science. Browse our viewbook. View photo galleries.

Funded by Zenith Society members, the Zenith Fellows Awards are among the most prestigious Alzheimer's research grants in the world. Zenith members review a slate of research projects vetted by an international panel of scientists and vote to determine which finalists will receive $450,000 Zenith Fellows Awards each year (typically two to three grants per cycle).

Zenith members come together with thought leaders and fellow philanthropists to learn more about new opportunities and imperatives for the Alzheimer’s movement and how the Alzheimer’s Association is leading the way forward in a rapidly changing landscape.

This exclusive two-day program features educational presentations and intimate social events and culminates in a celebration of the Association’s work at the Imagine Benefit, an evening of music and storytelling built on the legacy of the Rita Hayworth Gala. View photo galleries.
