TheĀ Alzheimer SocietyĀ ofĀ Canada is pleased to share details of a new application process for the Proof of Concept Grant, the cornerstone of innovation and excellence in the Alzheimer Society Research Program.

The Proof of Concept Grant provides $100,000 over up to 3 years to support investigators with innovative, high-risk, high-yield hypotheses about dementia.

New this year, the Research Program will pre-screen applications for the Proof of Concept Grant through a Letter of Intent (LOI) process. Successful LOI applicants will then be asked to submit a full application for peer review later in the summer.

Researchers with big, bold, outside-the-box ideas relevant to Alzheimerā€™s disease and other dementias are encouraged to apply.

The LOI form is with submissions due by July 6, 2021.
