The R25 Dementia Palliative Care Clinical Trials Program (DEM-PCCT) is accepting applications for its fourth cohort. 

If you are a researcher interested in developing competence in the planning, design, and execution of randomized clinical trials among persons with Alzheimer's Disease or Related Dementias (ADRD) and their caregivers, this program is right for you! The overall goal of this program is to support you in submitting a competitive grant application by the end of the program.

DEM-PCCT 10-month-long Program includes a combination of virtual small group sessions and a 5-day in-person Institute where participants work together to design a trial and develop their own grant application addressing palliative care issues in ADRD populations. This year, the required in-person Institute dates are September 14th–19th, 2025 and will be held in Chapel Hill, NC.
