Resource Networks for Protein Polymorphisms in Alzheimers Disease and its Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites U24 Cooperative Agreement applications aiming to establish several mis-folded protein polymorphisms resource networks in the area of Alzheimer's disease and its related dementias (AD/ADRD).
The central goal of these resource networks is to standardize and distribute seed, oligomers, and fibrils to other investigators in order to clarify and improve the reproducibility of experiments in AD/ADRD.
For the past several years, many studies have developed assays and reagents to understand the biophysical properties of various tau and A structural variants such as oligomers, protofibrils, and fibrils.
As a result, many imaging, chemical, and immunological tools have been developed to detect different types of A and tau polymorphs.
Establishing standards, understanding the pathological roles of these protein polymorphs, and using newly developed analytic tools to address the direct correlation between patient-to-patient variations in A and tau polymorphs are the long-term goals of the resource networks supported by this FOA.

Social Entrepreneurship: Meet the Disruptors of The World Of Philanthropy
William D. Eggers and Paul Macmillan of Dowser write about the social entrepreneurs slowly and steadily dirsupting the world of philanthropy. According to Forbes, philanthropy disruptors are those that believe “no one company is so vital that it can’t be replaced and no single business model too perfect to upend.”
