Alzheimer's disease, alone, accounts for $1.75 trillion in direct and indirect costs annually, according to the Alzheimer's Association.

"Larry Ruvo has done it, he truly is the American story," said U.S. Senator Harry Reid. "He has brought the reputation of a first-class facility, one of the most famous architects of our time and now one of the five best medical institutions in the world to Nevada."

The $100 million facility, designed by Frank Gehry, will house clinical space, a diagnostic center, neuroimaging rooms, physician offices and laboratories devoted to clinical research.
