Ami was nervous, but she wrote the check, and $60,160, and was awarded to the University of Michigan to continue research conducted by Dr. Mi Hee Lim on "Investigation of Small Molecules as Chemical Tools and Potential Therapeutics for Alzheimer's Disease."

This is the 7th of many grants the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative plans to award for Alzheimer's research and the second grant to the University of Michigan for Dr. Lim's work. Click here to learn more about the grant.

Congratulations to Ami and the University of Michigan for doing so much to help eradicate this horrible disease.

And, thank you, to all of you have participated by making a Prioirity quilt, buying a Priority quilt, purchasing earrings, and any of the other many contributions you have made to the AAQI over the years.
