The Alliance for Aging Research, in collaboration with other partner organizations, lends its support, time and effort to the Rally for Medical Research. The Alliance is committed to the cause of medical research funding and sustained investment in the National Institutes of Health to spur more progress, inspire more hope and save more lives. We invite you to join us at the Rally for Medical Research!

Let Your Voice Be Heard!

Federal funding for medical research is in jeopardy, threatening the health of Americans. On September 18, 2014, a broad coalition of groups from the medical research advocacy community will meet with House and Senate offices in Washington, D.C., to urge Congress to make funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) a national priority.

Join the Rally for Medical Research Hill Day to raise awareness during a critical time about the urgent need for an increased investment in the NIH to improve health, spur more progress, inspire more hope and save more lives.
