Alzheimers Research Foundation

Alzheimers Research Foundation We envision a world without Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia and currently affects over 5 million Americans.

Our mission is to make that future possible by advancing innovative research and education focused on prevention, early intervention, and functional medicine. Discovered over 100 years ago by Doctor Alois Alzheimer, it is a progressive neurological disease that causes memory loss, confusion, and a decline in functionality. While the majority of people with Alzheimer’s are age 65 and older, up to 5

percent of people with Alzheimer’s are in their 40’s and 50’s. Alzheimer’s can be a devastating disease both for the people who suffer from it, and for friends and family members who have to deal with the fact that their loved one no longer remembers them. Unfortunately, there is no known cure for Alzheimer’s…but thanks to organizations like Alzheimer’s Research Foundation, we’re getting closer.

Despite their size, fruit flies have surprisingly complex brains and neural connections that can help researchers study behavior, metabolism, sleep, neurodegeneration, and more.

Sometimes, the smallest models can help answer some of the biggest questions in Alzheimer’s research.

Just because something is available over the counter doesn’t mean we know its full impact on the brain.

A recent University of Florida analysis found that glucosamine use was associated with a 25% higher likelihood of progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia.

This does not prove that glucosamine causes dementia but it does raise important questions that researchers are working to better understand.

At the Alzheimer’s Research Foundation, we support research that challenges assumptions, investigates potential risk factors, and brings us closer to understanding what may influence cognitive decline.

Research like this is why continued Alzheimer’s funding matters. Learn more and support the research through the link in our bio.

Supporting a loved one with Alzheimer’s can often come down to the small, everyday moments.

Creating familiar routines, offering gentle reminders, simplifying choices, and allowing extra time can help make daily life feel more manageable and supportive.

Most importantly, meet them where they are, with patience, compassion, and dignity.

Save and share these tips with someone who may need them.

The impact of Alzheimer’s goes far beyond memory loss. It’s watching someone you love slowly lose the people, moments, and connections that once meant everything.

For our founder, Douglas Klinowski, that experience was deeply personal. After watching his own father drift away from his family, he turned that loss into a mission: supporting the researchers working to better understand Alzheimer’s disease and move us closer to new discoveries.

Every discovery starts with research and every donation helps make that research possible.

Our Neuroscholar, Dr. Skylar Stolte, recently attended the NYC Neuromodulation Conference, where researchers from around the world came together to share new approaches and advances in the field.

Dr. Stolte’s work explores neuromodulation and its potential role in supporting cognitive health as we age. Opportunities like this allow our Neuroscholars to share their research, learn from others in the field, and bring new perspectives back to their work.

We’re proud to support researchers like Dr. Stolte as they continue working toward a better understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and new possibilities for prevention and treatment.

One protein. Many functions. And an important role in Alzheimer’s disease.

Tau helps support the structure of healthy brain cells and keeps essential processes running. But when Tau stops functioning as it should, that structure can begin to break down. Over time, Tau can clump together, placing stress on neurons and contributing to neurodegeneration.

Understanding exactly how and why this happens could help researchers uncover new ways to prevent or treat Alzheimer’s disease.

At the Alzheimer’s Research Foundation, we support scientists asking these critical questions and pursuing the discoveries that could change the future of Alzheimer’s.

What can a tiny fruit fly teach us about Alzheimer’s disease? More than you might think.

Dr. Diego Rincon-Limas from the University of Florida uses fruit flies to study genes, molecules, and pathways associated with Alzheimer’s. Allowing researchers to examine decades of disease progression in just a few weeks.

Research like this takes collaboration, time, and continued support. By becoming a $25 monthly donor, you can help fund scientists pursuing new ways to understand Alzheimer’s disease and move us closer to better treatments and a cure.

A study led by Dr. Ramon Sun at the University of Florida, found that glucosamine use was associated with a 25% higher likelihood of progression from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to dementia. The research also identified hyperglycosylation a metabolic process that may play a role in accelerating Alzheimer’s disease progression.

These findings do not prove that glucosamine causes dementia, but they open the door to further research into pathways beyond the plaques and tangles traditionally associated with Alzheimer’s.

This is why supporting innovative researchers matters. At the Alzheimer’s Research Foundation, we’re proud to support scientists like Dr. Sun as they pursue new ways to understand, prevent, and ultimately cure Alzheimer’s disease. Want to learn more? Full article is linked in bio.
