Alzheimer's disease is an important public health problem, one that is devastating to those who suffer from it, to their families, and to the communities in which they live. NACC has since 1999 served as the data coordinating center for the NIA Alzheimer's Disease Centers Program nationwide. Standardized clinical and neuropathological data are received from approximately 30 Centers, and these data are made freely available to researchers everywhere, in order that they may form hypotheses and test research questions that will advance our understanding of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders
