HYBRID PUBLIC SESSION

Research Priorities for Preventing and Treating Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias

January 16, 2023 | 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET

January 17, 2023 | 8:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. ET

 

The National Academies' Committee on Research Priorities for Preventing and Treating Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias will host a public workshop to

• explore promising areas of research that may have the potential to catalyze scientific breakthroughs in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD)
• identify barriers to the advancement of research
• investigate successes and failures experienced in other biomedical research fields to understand how lessons learned could be translated to the dementia research context

The provisional committee was formed to support a consensus study focused on examining the current state of biomedical research aimed at preventing and treating AD/ADRD and identifying research priorities and opportunities to catalyze advances across the field.
