This Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R21) encourages applications to study pain from an aging perspective. The grant aims to support research involving older populations, examining age differences and age-related changes in pain processes and experiences, and developing effective pain treatment and management strategies for older adults. Priority areas include investigating mechanisms and predictors of pain experience in aging, developing and evaluating pain assessment tools suitable for older adults or model organisms, and creating and evaluating pain management strategies. Special attention should be given to challenges in treating pain in patients with multiple morbidities. Research approaches can encompass biological, clinical, behavioral, psychological, and social factors, utilizing both aged animal models and human subjects.

| Description: | This FOA encourages Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R21) applications from institutions/organizations that propose to study pain from an aging perspective, including studies of older populations, studies of age differences and age-related changes in pain processes and experiences, and studies of pain treatment and management in older adults. This FOA particularly encourages studies on 1) mechanisms and predictors of pain experience in aging, 2) development and evaluation of pain assessment tools for older adults or older model organisms, and 3) development and evaluation of pain management strategies in older adults, with particular attention to the challenges associated with treating pain in patients with multiple morbidities. Studies may address a variety of approaches and outcomes including biological (i.e., genetic, molecular, neurobiological), clinical, behavioral, psychological, and social factors.Both animal models (especially aged animals) and human subjects are appropriate for this FOA. |
