    Description

    The Major Projects grant from Alzheimer's Research UK funds intermediate to large-scale research projects that align with the charity’s strategy, focusing on the treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of dementia. The scheme encourages bold, high-impact ideas and welcomes both standalone projects and “added value” sub-studies within existing or planned clinical trials, such as biomarker validation or digital outcome measures. Proposals should be driven by scientific opportunity and are expected to accelerate progress towards a cure for dementia.

    The scheme is open to clinical and translational research, as well as preclinical studies with translational potential. Funding is flexible in both cost and duration, tailored to the needs of the research question and strength of preliminary data.
