Understanding Cerebellar Contributions to Cognitive and Affective Functions in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease/Alzheimer's Disease-Related Dementias

HHS-NIH11 Forecasted RFA-AG-26-018

Description

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for research on the cerebellum’s contributions to cognitive and affective functions in healthy aging as well as in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Alzheimer's disease related dementias (ADRD). This NOFO seeks studies to address the need for improved understanding of the physiology and neuroanatomy of the cerebellum in these processes in the context of healthy aging and AD/ADRD. This NOFO welcomes a mix of approaches including basic human and animal model studies, secondary data analyses of existing aging and AD/ADRD datasets, as well as studies examining the cerebellum as a potential target for interventions to promote cognitive reserve and/or prevent and delay the onset of AD/ADRD. Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO intends to utilize the R01 activity code. Investigators with expertise and insights into this area of aging research are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO.
