On October 5, the 2025 Marr Fund Team will participate in the Maine Marathon, Half-Marathon, Relay, and Virtual event for the 10th year. Established by the Marr family, the Josephine and John Marr Alzheimer's Research Fund at Brigham and Women's Hospital directly supports novel and early-stage research aimed at preventing Alzheimer's disease.

We now know that Alzheimer’s begins 20 years or more before the onset of symptoms. The Marr family–together with world-renowned researchers at the Brigham–are focused on finding a way to stop Alzheimer’s disease altogether. Backed by more than 30 years of research, Dr. Reisa Sperling and her team are pioneering innovative approaches to advance the prevention and treatment of this devastating disease, including world-wide prevention clinical trials.

Thank you for joining us in this fight to prevent Alzheimer’s. Together we can make a difference–now and for future generations.
