The National Institute on Aging is offering a grant to support research on glial plasticity in the aging brain. The aim is to explore the diversity of glial cells and their impact on brain aging processes. This grant seeks to address the emergence of distinct glial subpopulations and their role in vulnerability and resilience to aging. Applications are accepted until June 17, 2020.

| Description: | Recent reports highlight the enormous spatial and temporal diversity of glia, even within the same glial cell type. This within-glial-cell-type heterogeneity evolves during aging, suggesting that subtypes of glia with distinct physiological roles could emerge to influence brain aging processes. The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to support research addressing critical knowledge gaps in our understanding of how these glial subpopulations could contribute to vulnerability and resilience to brain aging. |
