Imaging Research in Alzheimer’s and Other Neurodegenerative Diseases Grant supports investigators’ pilot imaging research to improve diagnosis, prognosis, and understanding of Alzheimer’s and related diseases.
Funder: Foundation of the American Society of Neuroradiology
Due Dates (Anticipated): October 2026 (Letter of Intent) | January 2027 (Full application, by invitation)
Funding Amounts: Up to three awards of $200,000 each for one year
Summary: Supports pilot research on imaging tools, imaging-based studies, and imaging data analysis for Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
Key Information: A full application requires an approved Letter of Intent submitted by the same principal investigator.
The Foundation of the American Society of Neuroradiology and the Alzheimer’s Association jointly offer this grant to advance imaging research in Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. It supports early-stage pilot projects developing novel imaging tools, conducting imaging-based research, or applying innovative analysis to imaging data related to Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
The partners seek to improve imaging’s diagnostic and prognostic power and its use as a biomarker in clinical studies. Longer-term goals include understanding disease development and progression, informing risk reduction and prevention, and helping distinguish populations and potential treatments. Investigators are strongly encouraged to plan how they will overcome barriers to enrolling people from health disparity populations.
