Your participation in the Knight Alzheimer’s Primary Prevention Challenge will support the first-ever primary prevention trial for Alzheimer’s and help Washington University lead the fight against this devastating disease.
Clinical trials are essential tools that will help us learn how to prevent Alzheimer’s disease or delay its age of onset. Your support for the Knight Family DIAN-TU Challenge will help researchers gain critical insight into the causes of Alzheimer’s disease and develop better methods of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
Make your gift of support today.
