UCLA Alzheimer Disease Center (ADC)


The UCLA Alzheimer Disease Center (ADC) is an interdisciplinary collaborative enterprise dedicated to improving the lives of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and their caregivers through clinical care, research, and education. The UCLA ADC embraces the ultimate goal of preventing AD and the proximate goal of discovering the best means of optimizing the cognition, function, and behavior of the patient and the quality of life of the patient and the caregiver. The UCLA ADC provides comprehensive clinical assessments and longitudinal care; offers services and referrals to caregivers; trains future neuroscientists dedicated to AD research; and provides education programs to clinicians that will optimize the care of AD patients and their caregivers. The UCLA ADC fosters research that will increase understanding of the basic mechanisms and potential therapies of AD, improve diagnosis and treatment of AD, and enhance the dispersion of knowledge regarding care of AD patients to professionals and caregivers. The UCLA ADC accepts the challenge of developing clinical, research, and educational programs appropriate to a multiethnic and multicultural society.
