Job Description
The Fein Memory and Aging Center includes an NIH funded Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) supported by the National Institute of Aging. As one of the more than 30 ADRCs across the United States, the UCSF ADRC serves as a national resource for research on the nature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD) and the development of more effective approaches to prevention, diagnosis, care, and therapy. Together, ADRCs create shared resources that support dementia-relevant research.
For more than 20 years, the UCSF Edward and Pearl Fein Memory and Aging Center (MAC) has been providing exemplary care for patients and their families, exploring innovative ways to understand and discover treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, and reaching out to the broader community to raise awareness about these diseases of aging. The UCSF Fein Memory and Aging Center has grown from a single faculty member in 1998 into a major center for dementia care, research, and education. Today, the UCSF Fein Memory and Aging Center employs over 300 talented faculty and staff and enlists the support of more than 40 volunteers. We house 38 faculty members from neurology, geriatrics, psychiatry, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and nursing, and we have cared for more than 10,000 patients through our clinical and research programs.
