Eric M. Reiman, M.D.

Dr. Eric Reiman is Chief Executive Officer of Banner Research and Executive Director at Banner Alzheimer’s Institute (BAI). He is also Director of the Arizona Alzheimer’s Consortium, Clinical Director of Neurogenomics at the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Arizona and University Professor of Neuroscience at Arizona State University.

Dr. Reiman and his Banner Alzheimer’s Institute colleagues established the Alzheimer’s Prevention Initiative to launch a new era in Alzheimer’s prevention research. The Alzheimer’s Prevention Initiative includes public-private partnerships, prevention trials and biomarker development programs in cognitively unimpaired persons at high genetic and/or biomarker risk for Alzheimer’s disease. Unusually large registries and innovative programs to support enrollment in these and other studies, precedent-setting trial data and biological sample sharing agreements, and other efforts to help find and support the approval, affordability and availability of prevention therapies as soon as possible are also focus areas of this initiative.
