Alzheimer Research Forum
A knowledge base and e-community for Alzheimer's research
The Alzforum is an independent, not-for-profit resource dedicated to Alzheimer disease and related disorders. Founded in 1996, the website has become a true global online community, with approximately 30-50 percent of all active Alzheimer researchers visiting it regularly.
From its humble beginnings as a small set of HTML pages featuring manually curated lists of articles, the Alzforum has grown tremendously. Today, the website contains more than 40,000 literature citations, 1,300 research news articles, 4,000 comments, 10,000 antibodies, 200 research models, 350 genes from published association studies of late-onset AD, as well as all known mutations causing familial Alzheimer disease and frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism (FTDP -17). The site receives over one million visits per year. More than 3,200 people have registered as members of Alzforum, representing a significant portion of AD researchers worldwide.
