This NIH grant aims to fund research projects exploring the critical link between social disconnection, encompassing both objective social isolation and perceived loneliness, and suicide risk in older adults. This initiative is for advancing understanding of the complex neurobiological and environmental mechanisms underlying increased suicidal thoughts and behaviors in late life. Furthermore, it seeks applications that utilize experimental therapeutics approaches to pinpoint targets and develop effective interventions for late-life suicide prevention. The grant also supports efforts to develop and refine service delivery models designed to enhance social connection among older adults, thereby reducing suicide risk. The ultimate purpose is to foster innovative solutions to address this significant public health challenge.

| Description: |
This initiative seeks to solicit applications for research projects that address the link between social disconnection including both objective social isolation as well as perceived social isolation (otherwise known as loneliness) and suicide in late-life. Emphasis is placed on research that identifies neurobiological and environmental mechanisms associated with social isolation and loneliness that increase risk for suicidal thoughts and behavior in late-life, that uses an experimental therapeutics approach to identify targets and develop and test interventions to prevent late-life suicide, and that develops new and modifies existing service delivery models to enhance social connection in late-life to prevent suicide. |
