Partners in the Battle Against Alzheimer's

B.A.B.E.S

B.A.B.E.S, “Beating Alzheimer’s by Embracing Science”, is a powerful, dynamic and energized non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds to support the most promising research in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease.

By harnessing the enthusiastic energy of women, who are disproportionately affected by this disease, we will succeed in our passionate mission of finding a cure so that one day the burden of living with the effects of Alzheimer’s disease will no longer have to be endured by the next generation. For more information, please visit AlzBabes.org.

WomenAgainstAlzheimer's

WomenAgainstAlzheimer’s harnesses the power and creative energy of women –- the disease’s disproportionate victims, as patients and caregivers –- to create a new approach to finding a cure and to build a movement that commits our nation to a bold and aggressive plan for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

WomenAgainstAlzheimer’s is part of USAgainstAlzheimer’s Network, which is dedicated to mobilizing individuals to demand the urgency, resources, and commitment needed by our political, business and civic leaders to stop Alzheimer’s by 2020. We are enraged about the current sluggish ‘business as usual’ pace of Alzheimer’s progress, and we intend to be a disruptive force against the status quo.

Shiley-Marcos Alzheimer's Disease Research Center

The University of California San Diego Shiley-Marcos Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) is dedicated to investigating the cause, treatment, and prevention of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.

One of the original five of the now 29 Alzheimer’s Disease Centers supported by the National Institute on Aging, the ADRC was established in 1984 to translate research advances into improved diagnosis and care for persons with Alzheimer’s disease while focusing on finding ways to prevent, treat, and ultimately eradicate the disease.
