Our scientists

The Alzheimer's Research Trust is a science-led charity. We fund the research that the leading dementia scientists believe offers the best hope for making progress towards new ways to treat, cure or prevent dementia. To do that we fund world-class researchers to conduct innovative work at the forefront of science.
