cover of F Y 2018 bypass budget report

The National Institute on Aging at NIH has released its second annual bypass budget report—Stopping Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias: Advancing Our Nation's Research Agenda. Requested by Congress, the report features promising NIH-funded research on Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. It also outlines the additional funding needed in fiscal year 2018 to move toward the goal of effectively treating or preventing the disease by 2025.
Read the full report to learn about NIH’s research into:
  • the genetic influences of Alzheimer’s
  • brain changes associated with Alzheimer’s and related dementias
  • therapies to prevent, delay, or treat Alzheimer’s
  • caregiver support

About the FY 2018 Bypass Budget

With the 2011 National Alzheimer's Project Act, research aimed at a cure for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias became a national priority, and a National Plan to Address Alzheimer's Disease was established. At the direction of Congress, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) develops an annual professional judgment budget to estimate the funds needed to fully pursue scientific opportunities to meet the research goal of the Plan—to effectively treat and prevent Alzheimer's and related dementias by 2025. Biomedical studies and care and services research are addressed in the budget estimate.
The professional judgment budget is also called a "bypass budget" because it is submitted to the President and then to Congress, without modification through the traditional Federal budget process. It includes a set of targeted milestones and an estimate of the additional investment needed in fiscal year (FY) 2018, above the base for Alzheimer's and related dementias in the President's FY 2017 budget to help NIH—and the Nation—move forward to end the devastation of dementia. The bypass budget also highlights recent NIH-supported basic, translational, and clinical research—a wealth of studies that are helping us better understand, diagnose, prevent, and treat Alzheimer's and related dementias.
The NIH FY 2018 Bypass Budget for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias was presented August 1, 2016.
