Alzheimer’s Disease and Burke Neurological Institute

Science Fuels Hope

November is both Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month and National Family Caregivers Month, please give to:

• Honor someone facing the challenges of living with AD.
• Give in memory of your brave loved one.
• Honor a caregiver who deserves recognition.

We are hopeful and stronger together! 

We, along with our partners, will soon be enrolling participants in a clinical trial up to 50 sites across the nation for a promising vitamin therapy for mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD). 

We were awarded over $45 million by the federal government from the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute on Aging to push forward from a small pilot study at Burke Neurological Institute (BNI) to a larger scale nationwide trial. 

We thank you for being a special part of the BNI family! Please consider a gift to help us push forward a promising breakthrough for AD. Together, we can renew hope for millions of people around the world. 

By 2050, Alzheimer’s and Other Dementias Could Rise to Cost the Nation Nearly $1 Trillion.
