Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: The U.S. National Institute on Aging (NIA) at the National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, supports biomedical and behavioral research with a life-span focus. There is attention to understanding basic processes of aging, improving prevention and treatment of diseases and conditions common in later years, and improving the health of older persons. It is the federally designated lead in research on Alzheimer’s disease. The NIA also supports the training and career development of scientists focusing on aging research and the development of research resources. The symposium, meant for junior faculty and emerging scholars, will provide an update on the latest research findings from the NIA followed by a brief update on funding mechanisms available to U.S. citizens and foreign nationals. An opportunity is provided to meet and consult with NIA extramural staff.
