Alzheimer’s Association Research Grant (AARG) (worldwide)

Alzheimer’s Association

The AARG grant program aims to fund early-career investigators who are less than 15 years past their doctoral degree or post-residency (M.D. or D.O.) with funding that will allow them to develop preliminary or pilot data, to test procedures and to develop hypotheses. The intent is to support early-career development that will lay the groundwork for future research grant applications to federal or other funding entities.

This grant is open to U.S. and international researchers.

Funding and award period

Each AARG award total is limited to $200,000 (direct and indirect costs) for up to three years (Awards should be a minimum 2 years. For a 2-year award the total is limited to $140,000 with direct and indirect costs). Requests may not exceed $70,000 in any given year (direct and indirect costs). Indirect costs are capped at 10 percent of total direct costs and are inclusive of indirect costs for the implementing institution as well as to any subcontracts.

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants must be an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor at their respective academic institution and less than 15 years past their doctoral degree or post-residency (M.D. or D.O.).

The 15-year period applies to the date of submission of the grant application. Adjustments for career interruptions can be made for events such as: family leave, military service, and major illness or injury. It is the responsibility of the applicant to point out and document such interruptions within their application.
The Alzheimer's Association will make exceptions to the terminal degree requirement when the individual applicant has a full-time faculty position of Assistant Professor (or equivalent) or Associate Professor and is expert in the area of public health, social work, neuropsychology, legal, bioethics or a related area of psychosocial research
If an applicant is eligible for both AARG and AARG-NTF programs the choice is ultimately up to the applicant, but we suggest ECRs submit to AARG even if they are new to the field, since the applicant will be competing against others at a similar career stage. The applicant can’t apply to both programs.
Only one primary PI per application. Multiple PI projects are not allowed.

Note: Alzheimer’s Association grants are generally open to scientists and researchers across the globe; however, as a U.S.-based charity, the Alzheimer’s Association is subject to, and complies with, U.S. law. As a result, the Alzheimer’s Association cannot award, and will not award, grants in violation of applicable U.S. statutes and regulations. This means, among other things, that the Alzheimer’s Association cannot, and will not, fund any individual or entity (i) that is subject to U.S. comprehensive or targeted sanctions or if awarding funding would result in a violation of such sanctions, (ii) that is on the U.S. List of Specially Designated Nationals or entities owned or controlled by such persons, or (iii) when doing so is otherwise prohibited by U.S. laws related to combating terrorism.

Ineligibility

Individuals currently enrolled as a student in a undergraduate, Master or Doctoral Program are not eligible, regardless of prior degree status.
