A foundation dedicated to Alzheimer’s research is distributing a record 5 million euros to support 23 research projects, according to recent reports.
The funding, awarded by the Fondation Stop Alzheimer, will bolster a range of studies aimed at understanding and combating the disease. This significant investment underscores the growing global effort to address the increasing prevalence of Alzheimer’s and related dementias, which pose a substantial public health challenge.
Details about the specific projects receiving funding were not immediately available, but the foundation indicated the grants will support diverse areas of investigation. The financial boost comes as scientists continue to explore potential breakthroughs in Alzheimer’s treatment and prevention.
Recent research has identified brain cells that may hold the key to halting the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, as reported by Professional Media Group. The PREVENT-AD cohort is working to accelerate Alzheimer’s research and treatment in Canada and beyond, according to Wiley.
The Foundation for Alzheimer’s research also recently awarded 5 million euros to projects, belganewsagency.eu reports. This increased funding reflects a growing commitment to finding effective therapies and ultimately a cure for this devastating disease.
