Current Grants
A comprehensive, customized focus on prevention and health, rather than disease, is at the heart of our work at the CCBH. We’re on a mission to better understand how the aging brain works, and design treatments and prevention plans that will result in longer, better lives. We seek to prevent or delay the onset of these devastating diseases by 50 percent, curbing the suffering of hundreds of thousands of Americans. Here is an inventory of our current grant portfolio
