    The National Institutes of Health (NIH), through the National Institute on Aging (NIA), has opened a funding opportunity for collaborative Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias research initiatives targeted at low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The opportunity, titled "Consortium for Neuroscience AD/ADRD in Low- and Middle-Income Countries," aims to foster sustainable neuroscience research capacity in LMICs by encouraging partnerships between U.S. and LMIC researchers. Proposed projects are to focus on increasing knowledge of AD/ADRD in diverse populations, including epidemiological studies and exploration of risk factors different from those in high-income countries. The funding amounts to $2.16M for five awards, with application budgets capped at $400,000 annually over a five-year period. Collaborations must include at least one U.S. and one LMIC scientist experienced in neuroscience AD/ADRD research and focus on population-relevant research suitable for LMIC settings. The program seeks to address the significant gap in AD/ADRD research in LMICs, ultimately leading to improved prevention and treatment strategies in these regions while also benefiting global research endeavors.
