In 2019, Emory’s Goizueta Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center received the D Jones Family Charitable Foundation’s largest grant to date to further its efforts in a biomarker development study for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases – two diseases which have profoundly impacted family and friends of the Jones family.
According to its website, the Goizueta Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC), founded in 2005, is one of 27 active centers in the nation supported by the National Institutes of Health. The goal of these centers is to bring scientists together to facilitate their research and help learn more about Alzheimer’s and related diseases. It is also committed to the education of health care professionals, persons with Alzheimer’s disease, their families, and their communities to aid in understanding, diagnosis and treatment of these illnesses.
