Alzheimer’s and Memory Research

About Our Research
The Memory Disorders Program investigates new treatments designed to prevent and slow Alzheimer’s disease. Furthermore, we develop new tools to improve diagnostic and prognostic accuracy.
The Memory Disorders Program is actively recruiting subjects for clinical trials, volunteers are needed to participate in our research. Ongoing studies are those that are underway and are no longer recruiting new subjects.
If you are interested in joining a research study, please contact our program at memory@georgetown.edu.

Joining Our Research
As the first step, we invite you to complete a pre-screening phone call. The call lasts 10-15 minutes, and you will be asked about your family and medical history, willingness to participate in research procedures, contact information and demographics. This one time call helps us determine your eligibility for research.
