| At LightBridge, we're committed to staying on the leading edge of research in the areas of Alzheimer's disease and dementia. We have aligned our organization with not only highly credentialed individuals in the field, but also major institutions that have affiliated with us to ensure that our educational caregiver guides present the most accurate, up-to-date information possible. We’ve received implied, official, and financial endorsement from these fully accredited and both nationally and internationally respected institutions. Their support is critical to our ability to fulfill our mission. | |
The National Institutes of Health The National Institutes of Health (NIH) supports LightBridge initiatives through its funding of LightBridge’s research. The NIH has approved several LightBridge grant applications for funding by the National Institute of Aging after subjecting them to competitive peer review. |  |
Founded in 1887, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is one of the world's foremost medical research centers and the Federal focal point for medical and nursing research in the United States. The goal of NIH research is to acquire new knowledge to help prevent, detect, diagnose, and treat disease and disability, from the rarest genetic disorder to the common cold. The NIH mission is to uncover new knowledge that will lead to better health for everyone. NIH works toward that mission by: conducting research in its own laboratories; supporting the research of non-Federal scientists in universities, medical schools, hospitals, and research institutions throughout the country and abroad; helping in the training of research investigators; and fostering communication of medical and health sciences information. This project was supported by grant #2R44AG019996-02A2 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA).
