The National Institute on Aging is offering this Exploratory/Developmental Grant (R21) to advance research on family caregivers supporting individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). This grant is for the purpose of developing innovative methods and measures to capture broader definitions of family and caregiving concepts. A key focus is the testing of these new measures within populations currently underrepresented in AD/ADRD research. Unlike its companion R01 grant which encourages preliminary data, this R21 opportunity specifically targets high-risk, high-payoff projects that may lack extensive preliminary data, providing a pathway for novel approaches in this critical area of study. This initiative aims to enhance understanding and support for informal caregivers.
