This grant from the National Institute on Aging aims to support research exploring the impact of senescence on brain aging and Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers are encouraged to address knowledge gaps in neurobiology through innovative techniques and collaborations, drawing on insights from peripheral tissue senescence. Understanding the mechanisms of brain aging, including senescence, is crucial for developing strategies against age-related brain disorders. Closing date for applications is Oct 17, 2019.

| Description: | The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support research focused on understanding the role of senescence in brain aging and in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This FOA encourages research projects addressing critical knowledge gaps in our understanding of the neurobiology of senescence through cutting-edge techniques, cross-disciplinary collaborations, and/or conceptual innovation, leveraging what is known about senescence in peripheral tissues to learn more about brain aging. Developing a clear understanding of the mechanisms driving aging processes in the brain, including senescence, is essential for combating age-related neurodegenerative diseases. |
