What research is Alzheimer's Society funding?

Our research aims to understand the underlying causes of the condition, improve diagnosis and care, identifying ways to prevent dementia and searching for a cure. 

Our Drug Discovery programme is an exciting approach to developing treatments for dementia by 'repurposing' existing drugs.

The Centres of Excellence are a groundbreaking initiative developed by Alzheimer’s Society to address areas in dementia care that are in urgent need of more research.

As a founding charity partner for the UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI), Alzheimer’s Society has pledged £50 million towards the single biggest investment in dementia research the UK has ever seen.

Take part in dementia research and make a real difference to the future of dementia care, diagnosis and treatment. We explain how to get involved and register your interest with us.
