A critically important event for Alzheimer's research

Alzheimer's Association International Conference® 2022 starts Sunday. Your help is needed in the fight to end Alzheimer's. Dear Tushar, There's no other time of the year when so many of the world's leading scientists, clinical researchers, early career investigators, clinicians and the research community gather in one place. And it's happening in just three days — at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference® 2022 (AAIC®). All next week, researchers will come together — both virtually and in person — to share breaking research discoveries and important updates that could lead to new methods of prevention and treatment, and improvements in diagnosis for Alzheimer's disease. And here's the best part, Tushar. You don't have to be a scientist to accelerate progress at this once-a-year event. You don't have to have a lab coat or a microscope. You can make an impact now with a gift that will help provide care and support today and advance the research of tomorrow. It's only with your generous support that we can continue to be there 24/7 for the people affected by this devastating disease with care and support, accelerate research and make critical events like AAIC happen. Thank you so much for making this the day you provide your strong financial support — for the very first time. We truly appreciate having you as part of our community. Each year at AAIC, the topics are different, but there's a strong focus on basic science that is relevant to Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Watch this special video we've prepared for you about AAIC 2022. Among those gathered for AAIC this year are distinguished experts in the field who provide a wide range of insights on key topics and themes such as traumatic brain injury and dementia, mechanisms underlying lifestyle interventions in Alzheimer's disease, the link between delirium and dementia, and much more. You may not be familiar with these studies, but you have a vested interest in the scientific advancements these researchers and their colleagues are leading. Please help keep progress going by making a gift to the Alzheimer's Association now. Your generosity will help to advance our mission to lead the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia — by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. I'm excited to think about the exchange of ideas that will be taking place over the next week at AAIC. As you read about new breakthroughs, there's a good chance many of them may have started with the people at this year's conference. That's not only a reflection on them — it's also a reflection on you and the strength of your commitment. Please show your commitment in the fight to end Alzheimer's by donating generously today. Sincerely, Liz Adams Chief Development Officer P.S. AAIC is the one time a year when the world's leading scientists, clinical researchers, early career investigators, clinicians and the care research community assemble to share and discuss breaking research discoveries that will lead to methods of prevention and treatment, and improvements in diagnosis for Alzheimer's and all other dementia. It's also a time when your strongest possible support is urgently needed. Your donation will strengthen our efforts to advance Alzheimer's care, support and research. From face-to-face support to online education programs and promising global research initiatives, your gift makes a difference in the lives of all those affected by Alzheimer's and other dementias in your community and across the world.

✉️ A message from our Chief Science Officer

Alzheimer's Association International Conference® 2022 (AAIC®) July 31-August 4. Your help is needed to fuel progress in the fight to end Alzheimer's. Dear Tushar, We're all counting on researchers to advance new diagnostic tools and treatments and, ultimately, achieve a cure for Alzheimer's disease. Because we're all at risk. But as a scientist, I can tell you that progress doesn't only happen in a lab. Progress happens when leading researchers from around the world come together to discuss their work and collaborate on promising investigations. That's why I'm excited to tell you that our annual Alzheimer's Association International Conference® 2022 (AAIC®) begins on Sunday in San Diego and online. At AAIC, the world's leading scientists, clinical researchers, early career investigators, clinicians and the research community gather to share breaking discoveries that will lead to methods of prevention and treatment, and improvements in diagnosis for Alzheimer's and all other dementia. As someone who has shown an interest in the work of the Alzheimer's, you can have an impact on the progress that's taking place by making a contribution to accelerate research, as well as help provide care and support. As Chief Science Officer of the Alzheimer's Association, I know that only by continuing to invest in research can we hope to find a cure for Alzheimer's. It's research that creates breakthroughs and makes advancements toward a cure possible. As we look ahead to this year's event, please watch this special video we've prepared for you about what happens at AAIC. And the best way to advance crucial scientific investigations is to bring leading researchers from the field together to share news and updates about their discoveries. That's what AAIC makes possible. The more we support collaboration, the more we accelerate progress — together. Your support helps make AAIC possible, and when you contribute to the Alzheimer's Association, you help to accelerate vital research and provide care and support. Please help to provide the support that is needed to advance the fight against Alzheimer's by making your first gift now. Tushar, by giving today in support of the Alzheimer's Association, you'll help to advance our mission to lead the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia — by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support. AAIC begins this Sunday and continues through August 4. I'll be there, along with other members of the Alzheimer's Association team. I'm looking forward to discussing the latest research with my colleagues and learning how we can support the progress they're making. We're all looking forward to sharing updates with you. After all, it isn't only scientists who are leading the way to a cure; your financial support can help push research forward, too, along with providing care and support that so many people need.
