After witnessing the devastating effects of Alzheimer’s on families and recognizing the critical gap in research funding, Douglas founded the Alzheimer’s Research Foundation to ensure that high-potential, forward-thinking scientific work receives the support it needs. He is dedicated to directing resources where they can have the greatest impact—advancing innovative research that moves us closer to prevention, treatment, and ultimately a cure. 

Under his leadership, the Foundation is built on accountability, purpose, and results, giving donors confidence that their contributions are fueling real progress. Douglas remains driven by a simple belief: that with the right investment in research today, we can change the future for millions of families facing Alzheimer’s tomorrow.
