About the Age Network
The goal of the Age Network is to promote biobehavioral and social
research on adulthood and aging by:
- providing formal and informal opportunities for faculty to develop shared projects (e.g., the website network directory)
- providing participant recruitment support for those who conduct human research
- providing competitive pilot funding for collaborative research
- assisting with pre-proposal peer review and consultation
- running the current NIA-funded T32 Pre-doctoral Aging Training Program (including re-submission of our NIA T32 grant in 2007)
- administering the curriculum-based Graduate Certificate in Aging
- awarding the annual Leighton Cluff award for graduate and undergraduate research in aging
