now to reinvent and reinforce our fight against Alzheimer's. For the baby boom generation, this is certainly one of our last chances," explained Gingrich. "We have many of the pieces already but we have to break down organizational barriers that prevent us from putting them together. Expect updates from the Alzheimer's Study Group in coming months as we move toward a bold action-oriented plan next year. We have the nation's future to protect."

About the Alzheimer's Study Group

The Alzheimer's Study Group is an independent, non-partisan, non-profit organization created for the sole purpose of creating the National Alzheimer's Strategic Plan to overcome America's mounting Alzheimer's crisis. Established on July 11, 2007, the ASG began its work with an assessment of the country's current efforts and is now developing strategic recommendations to accelerate progress toward overcoming this disease. The work of the ASG has been funded by the Alzheimer's Association, the Dwyer family, Pfizer-Eisai, the McCance Foundation, the Vradenburg Foundation, and Wyeth. The ASG has also received an in-kind contribution of substantial project management and research support from Booz Allen Hamilton. The effort is being administered and managed through the Center for Health Transformation. For more information, visit the Alzheimer's Study Group website at http://www.alzstudygroup.org .
