"The NBER Coordinating Center on the Economics of Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) Prevention, Treatment, and Care conducts and coordinates a range of research projects related to these dementias, which are projected to become increasingly prevalent as the US population ages, and pose profound challenges to our health and long-term care systems. Providing care to individuals with AD/ADRD is complicated by their potential limitations in their capacity to communicate and engage. A growing body of research offers new insights on both the prevention and treatment of AD/ADRD.

"The Center is pleased to announce our request for applications for our 2025-2026 Early Career Research Awards for the Study of the Economics of AD/ADRD (EC-READ) and Research Awards for the Study of the Economics of AD/ADRD (READ).  Proposals are due September 10, 2025 at 11:59PM ET."
