The 90+ Study

09/16/2025

Congratulations, Dr. Sajjadi! As a Co-Principal Investigator of The 90+ Study, we are excited to share the amazing news of his new funding.

UCI MIND researchers have received an $18 million, five-year grant from the National Institute on Aging - NIH to conduct a landmark multi-center study on dementia. The award highlights UC Irvine's position as a global leader in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias research.

The project will establish the nation's first trial-ready patient group for limbic predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE), a common but underrecognized condition present in up to 40 percent of older adults' brains.

“This study will advance efforts to develop accurate diagnostic tools for LATE and lay the foundation for recruiting participants into future clinical trials targeting this disease,” says S. Ahmad Sajjadi, M.D., Ph.D., associate professor of neurology in the UC Irvine School of Medicine

We lost a legend today.

Tony Bennett inspired the world with his music. Together, with his family, he also inspired our community using his amazing voice to raise Alzheimer's awareness after revealing his own diagnosis in 2021.

Our hearts are with Susan and Tony’s children Danny, Antonia, Dae and Joanna.

For the Bennett family, and the millions of others impacted by Alzheimer’s and dementia, we promise to relentlessly continue our work until we reach our vision of a world without Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia.
