The National Institutes of Health is offering this grant, the Translational Research at the Aging/Cancer Interface (TRACI) R21, to encourage innovative translational research. This initiative focuses on the critical overlap between human aging and cancer, seeking to connect fundamental basic science with clinical applications through both bench-to-bedside and bedside-to-bench methodologies. This grant is for the purpose of generating crucial information that will ultimately enhance the health and well-being of older individuals at risk for, or diagnosed with, cancer. It also aims to significantly reduce the functional impairment and morbidity often associated with cancer in this vulnerable elderly population, thereby improving their overall quality of life.
