Kaufer Lecture How to join a research lab Alzheimer's Disease & Related Dementias Research Day 2026 The Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) Developmental Project Award offers up to $120,000 to support a feasibility study targeting Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) research. Proposals may range from basic or biomedical to translational, epidemiological, caregiving, or social behavioral research.
Clinical trials are excluded. Funding is available to all researchers within the University of Wisconsin–Madison, with priority given to early-stage faculty and postdoctoral trainees. Established researchers new to ADRD research and those with a new hypothesis that is not an extension of already ongoing research are also welcome to apply.
We encourage researchers from a wide range of backgrounds to apply, and welcome projects focused on groups at increased risk of dementia. Applicant must have PI status at the time of award. Developmental projects should align with the aims of the National Alzheimer’s Project Act .
Priority will be given to investigators who leverage the use of Wisconsin ADRC or National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center (NACC) data or biological samples from the National Centralized Repository for Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (NCRAD) as part of their research plan. The Wisconsin ADRC supports one award of up to $60,000 annually, in direct costs per project, with a duration of one year.
If there is sufficient progress, the second year may be awarded up to $60,000 each (up to $120,000 max over two years). No indirect costs will be supported PI must have a doctoral degree and a UW or VA appointment Clinical trials are excluded Awardee will be asked to present their project at the ADRC Executive Committee meeting at the onset and upon completion.
Participation in additional meetings to update ADRC key leadership on progress to date is required as requested. Annual progress reports are required in January of each year of funding. Additional reporting requests may be made during the grant cycle.

Wisconsin DNR opened Cycle A of the PFAS Community Grants Sampling Program on October 19, 2026: $1M for private well, school and child care sampling, $500,000 for bottled water and other response actions, and $500,000 for wastewater and biosolids sampling, with a 20% match. The money comes from the $125M PFAS Trust Fund that was frozen for more than two years. Grants go out in the order complete applications arrive. Here is how the program works, who qualifies, and how to get a complete application in early.

The binding constraint is not competition — the last round funded every applicant — it is the UW research-design preapproval due December 18, 2026.
Read articleSLCGP funding fell 67 percent from $279.9M to $91.7M while the local match rose from 30 to 40 percent — and FY2025 is the final year of the program's four-year authorization. Michigan's window closes October 11 with a 40 percent match; Wisconsin's closes October 30 with none. Why identical federal money arrives on completely different terms, and what to apply for when there is no next cycle.
