Description
The Clinical Research Award from Alzheimer's Research UK aims to accelerate the development of new dementia therapies by supporting high-quality, investigator-led clinical research. This scheme is a core part of the charity’s Clinical Accelerator Programme, designed to foster innovative experimental medicine studies, early-phase clinical trials (typically phase 1b/2a), and added-value sub-studies that bridge biological investigation with clinical intervention. The award encourages collaborative, multidisciplinary research that integrates biomarker advances, supports data sharing, and strengthens the clinical trial pipeline for dementia.
