I’m delighted to report that the NIA National Advisory Council on Aging (NACA) recently approved multiple new cleared concepts that could potentially evolve into future funding opportunities for a wide range of researchers. While making it to the cleared concept stage isn’t a guarantee of a new award mechanism or funding allocation, many cleared concepts do, and later show up in the NIH Guide . Read more at the links below, and if one or more seem like a good fit for your scientific interests, start planning ahead now for a potential application!
NIA’s newly cleared concepts are:
- Advance Aging Research through Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Data Linkage
- Advancing Diversity in Aging Research Through Undergraduate Education (ADAR) Program Coordinating Center
- Aging Mammalian Tissues In Vitro
- Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratory Renewal
- Bats and Healthy Aging
- Caring for Complex Older Adults Through Electronic Health Record Dashboards (COATED)
- Data Coordinating Center for the Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Brain Atlas (AD-MBA)
- Dementia Care and Caregiver Support Intervention Research — Stage I Only
- Dementia Care and Caregiver Support Intervention Research — Stages II through V
- Interdisciplinary Research Network on Housing and Health
- Interdisciplinary Research to Understand the Complex Biology of Resilience to Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias Disease Risk
- Institutional Research Training Award for AD/ADRD And Aging Research in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs)
- National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center (NACC)
- National Centralized Repository for Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (NCRAD)
- National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) Wave VII Renewal
- New Institutional Training Programs for Aging Research
- Renewal of Clinician-Scientist Transdisciplinary Aging Research (Clin-STAR) Coordinating Center
- Renewal — Social, Behavioral, and Economic (SBE) COVID Coordinating Center
- RNA Metabolism in Aging and Aging-Related Diseases
- Transition to Aging Research for Predoctoral Students
- Translational Center for Accelerating the Use of Digital Technologies in Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias Research
