This National Institutes of Health grant is for supporting rigorous, hypothesis-driven research aimed at understanding the complex dysregulation of transposable elements (TEs) and their significant contributions to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRD), and the broader aging process. This funding opportunity particularly encourages applications investigating the direct causal effects of TE activation within these disease states and in aging. Furthermore, it seeks proposals that model potential therapeutic interventions targeting TEs. The overarching purpose of this grant is to facilitate the scientific field’s crucial transition from purely observational discoveries towards a more profound mechanistic understanding of TE function and their intricate regulation in neurological health and decline.

Description: | The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support hypothesis-driven research to gain an understanding of the dysregulation of transposable elements (TE) and their contributions to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRD) and aging. This FOA encourages applications that investigate causal effects of TE activation in disease and aging and applications that model therapeutic interventions to facilitate the transition of the field from observational discovery towards a deeper mechanistic understanding of the function and regulation of TEs. |
