The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is offering this grant to advance translational research into schizophrenia and related disorders affecting individuals aged 35 and older. Despite a significant majority of those living with these conditions being in mid-to-late life, the underlying mechanisms of illness generation and progression remain poorly understood. This grant is specifically for researchers to explore the emergence and trajectory of schizophrenia in this older demographic. The ultimate purpose is to foster a deeper understanding that will lead to the identification of novel targets for future development of preventative measures and effective treatment strategies for these challenging disorders in aging populations.
