Eighth Annual
Great Ladies Luncheon & Fashion Show

Eighth Annual Great Ladies Luncheon & Fashion Show

The Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation and Neiman Marcus Mazza Gallerie presented the Eighth Annual Great Ladies Luncheon & Fashion Show, hosted by CNN Lead Political Anchor Wolf Blitzer. At this year's luncheon, we were thrilled to present the Great Ladies Award to Neiman Marcus Group, which was accepted by Karen Katz, Board member and former President and CEO.

Neiman Marcus has been an exceptional partner of this event for the past three years, continuously supporting the ADDF and our mission to cure Alzheimer's. The afternoon also featured a special runway show by our fashion partner Etro.

The luncheon was preceded by the Symposium to Conquer Alzheimer's, featuring a panel of leading scientists led by Howard Fillit, MD.

Symposium Panelists

Susan Catalano, PhD, Cognition Therapeutics
Yuko Hara, PhD, Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation
Eugenia Trushina, PhD, Mayo Clinic
