Opportunities for Researchers

ADRC Research Support Applications

The Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Research Center (ADRC) at Utah State University (USU) offers a Research Catalyst program to facilitate new research on Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. This competitive program is open to any faculty or post-doctoral fellow working for a Utah-based institution of higher education whose research is related to Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia (ADRD). Research in ADRD is defined broadly, including prevention, intervention, basic or applied studies, and with or without family or paid care providers. Research supports are wide-ranging and can include funds to directly carry out the work (e.g., honoraria for participants; funds for assays), research assistantships, purchasing of capital equipment, or providing time to complete the work through course releases or the provision of summer salary. Support for students should be submitted by their faculty advisor. 

*F&A and indirect costs are not permitted to be included in the budget*

The deadline to apply is December 1.
