A significant portion of the Michigan Alzheimer’s Disease Center is dedicated to research funded by the National Institute on Aging. Taking advantage of the University of Michigan’s deep infrastructure in dementia and aging research, the Michigan Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (Michigan ADRC) connects researchers at Wayne State University, Michigan State University, and the University of Michigan to foster and enhance innovative research in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, and provide a critically important statewide resource for researchers, trainees, healthcare professionals and the broader public.
The Rinne Lewy Body Dementia Initiative was created to support those living with the disease and their care partners, improve awareness among healthcare professionals and the public, and advance our understanding and treatment of the disease.
Our Wellness Initiative offers a variety of programs to support the well-being of caregivers and people living with early-stage memory loss.
The Michigan Brain Bank provides individuals and families an opportunity to contribute to the future of science.
The Dementia for Scientists Curriculum was created to provide an introduction to dementia research so that new investigators can read and understand literature outside of their disciplines.
The Michigan Alzheimer’s Disease Center provides several email offerings. Sign up to stay in the loop.
