US Support for Global Alzheimer's Fight

This act authorizes the United States to participate in the Davos Alzheimer’s Collaborative (DAC), an international initiative. The goal is to accelerate research, diagnosis, and treatment of Alzheimer's disease globally, which could also benefit American patients and their families. These efforts aim to reduce the financial and social burden associated with the disease.
Key points
The U.S. will join global cooperative efforts to combat Alzheimer's disease, including in low- and middle-income countries.
U.S. financial contributions to DAC will be contingent on securing funding from other sources, capped at 33% of total contributions.
The act aims to develop diagnostics and treatments for diverse populations, including minorities disproportionately affected by the disease.
Women, who are more frequently affected and are primary caregivers, may particularly benefit from advancements in research and care.
