The Aging Brain Initiative at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a new endeavor that aims to create effective treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. We have brought together researchers from the fields of neuroscience, genetics, computer science, urban planning, systems engineering, and finance to bring practical solutions to the intractable problem of Alzheimer’s disease and age related dementia.
