Alzheimer’s Disease research

The CART Fund(Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust)

The goal of CART is to encourage exploratory and developmental AD research projects within the United States by providing support for the early and conceptual plans of those projects that may not yet be supported by extensive preliminary data, but have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research. Since 1999 the fund has awarded over $13 million to research centers from throughout the U.S.A.

The goal of CART is to encourage exploratory and developmental Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) research projects within the United States by providing support for the early and conceptual plans of those projects that may not yet be supported by extensive preliminary data but have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research. This proposal should be distinct from those projects designed to increase knowledge in a well-established area unless it is intended to extend previous discoveries toward new directions or applications.

The CART Fund is inviting interested applicants from within the United States only to submit a Letter-of-Intent (LOI) that includes sufficient detail to communicate the importance of your study as well as information on its feasibility.

CART typically awards 3-5 grants, and expects to offer $500,000 to the top grant in 2025.

A scientific review group will triage the letters-of-intent and select a maximum of 15 finalists deemed to have the highest merit. Those selected will be invited to submit a subsequent standard grant application from which the final recommendations will be made by the review group. The final selections will be made by the CART Fund Grant Selection Committee.

Applicants should submit a letter-of-intent as a PDF file. The letter should include the following:

Contact information – one page
A statement containing: the hypothesis of the project; the specific aims; a description of the experimental design, methods, and model systems – two-page limit
A statement giving future directions this research could lead to, including a reference to the health relationship of the project – one-page limit
A biographical statement of the principal investigator – two-page limit
Publication list of the principal investigator – two-page limit

CART Schedule for Grant Application Processing for 2024-25:

December 6, 2024 – Deadline for applicants to submit letters of intent via e-mail
