Description: |
ADDF funds drug discovery research programs from domestic and international investigators in academia and biotechnology companies. Drug discovery for frontotemporal dementias (FTD) has been hindered by the heterogeneity
of the disease. FTD specific biomarkers that reflect pathological differences are needed to
select appropriate patients for clinical trials and monitor target?specific responses to
investigational treatments. The Alzheimer?s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) and The
Association for Frontotemporal Dementias (AFTD) challenge scientists to meet this unmet
medical need by submitting applications through this Request for Proposals (RFP). |
