Emory University Receives $7.4 Million to Study Alzheimer's disease

"Emory University has received $7.4 million in federal funds for Alzheimer's disease research, university officials said Wednesday. The National Institute on Aging also designated the university as an Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, one of only 32 such designations it has made across the country.

The funding, distributed from the federal agency over five years, will help the university conduct research to better understand Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases, said Dr. Stuart Zola, associate director of Emory's Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. The center will study mild cognitive impairment, the transitional stage between healthy aging and dementia. In addition, it will examine how racial factors influence dementia.

The federal money is being matched by $700,000 from the Georgia Research Alliance, a private corporation created to support economic development in the state."
