National Institute on Aging Grant: Investigating Mid-life Reversibility of Biobehavioral Risk Factors (R01)

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) is offering a research grant to explore midlife plasticity of biobehavioral or psychological systems affected by early life disadvantage. This grant aims to identify strategies that can mitigate or exacerbate the effects of early adversity. Applicants are encouraged to use existing cohort data or human/animal models to test intervention feasibility in increasing malleability in adulthood. The closing date for applications is February 3, 2014.

Description::	The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) is to solicit two-year Research Project Grant (R01) applications that propose to explore the potential for midlife plasticity of biobehavioral or psychological systems affected by early life disadvantage. In order to speed the development of novel intervention strategies, applicants are encouraged either to use existing human cohort data to identify circumstances that mitigate or exacerbate the effects of early adversity or to use human and/or animal models to test the feasibility of developing interventions aimed specifically at increasing malleability in adulthood of risk persistence mechanisms.
