Grant Advisory Boards

See who makes up our Grant Advisory Boards and learn how they advise on the research we fund.

The Grant Advisory Boards (GAB) are made up of leading experts in research. They are in place to advise Alzheimer's Society on decisions relating to the funding and management of our research projects.

Under no circumstances should the Grant Advisory Board members be contacted to discuss meeting details or outcomes.

All enquiries must be directed to the Research Grants Team by sending an email to [email protected]
