USC’s Alzheimer’s Therapeutic Research Institute (ATRI) in San Diego hosted the chair installation ceremony, which recognized and honored Dr. Aisen’s decades of work leading teams toward more effective treatments for Alzheimer’s disease.
The Director’s Chair was endowed by the Epstein Family Foundation as another generous gift in a series of significant donations catalyzing Alzheimer’s research in Southern California.
