Call for Research Applications

The Alzheimer Societies of Hamilton and Halton, Brant, Haldimand Norfolk and the Niagara Region are committed to supporting research at the local level that will be broadly representative of the needs of all four communities. We will consider applications for both financial and non-monetary research support. Applications for financial support could include requests for funds to offset graduate student research or budgetary support for small applied clinical research or pilot projects. 

The amount that the Alzheimer Society will fund is up to $15,000. Non-monetary support could include assistance in accessing study subjects for external researchers engaging in clinical research or program evaluation.
