On May 8, 2025, the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) will host its Fifteenth Annual Great Ladies Luncheon & Fashion Show at The Ritz Carlton in Washington, DC, from 10:30 am to 2:00 pm.

The event will kick off with The Symposium to Conquer Alzheimer’s, followed by a luncheon. During the luncheon, we will honor Dr. Howard Fillit, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer of the ADDF, for his visionary leadership of the ADDF and dedication to advancing innovative Alzheimer’s drug therapies. His advocacy for a biology of aging approach and focus on combination therapies and precision medicine has shaped the future of Alzheimer’s research. Additionally, we will recognize Eisai Inc. for its pioneering contributions to Alzheimer’s research, including transformative treatments like Aricept and Lecanemab, as well as its commitment to early diagnosis, biomarker innovation, and global collaboration. Our esteemed fashion partner, Saks, will then delight guests with a runway show featuring the inspired couture of a yet-to-be-revealed designer!
