About This Grant

<p style="margin-left:0in;">The National Institute on Aging (NIA) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications that propose a program that supports integrative, cross-disciplinary projects aimed at scaling up mechanistic studies to understand the genomic underpinnings of the pathogenesis and progression AD/ADRD.</p><p>The proposed research projects will employ interdisciplinary approaches that integrate innovative techniques to dissect the genomic drivers of AD/ADRD. These projects will leverage advanced analytical methods, including machine learning and comparative genomic analysis across multiple genetic ancestries or multiple neurodegenerative diseases, along with cutting-edge tools like genome editing, functional characterization assays, and emerging single-cell and spatial omics technologies. These studies will use sophisticated disease models, such as human stem cell-based systems, ex vivo, and in vivo models that reflect different genetic ancestries, various model organisms, or multiple neurodegenerative conditions. These cross-ancestry, cross-disease, and cross-species approaches will enable a more comprehensive investigation of the genomic drivers of neurodegeneration and neuropathogenesis. Ultimately, this initiative may lead to the identification of actionable therapeutic targets for AD/ADRD, meeting the urgent need for mechanism-driven insights that can guide precision medicine approaches for its treatment.</p><p style="margin-left:0in;">Applications are not being solicited at this time. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.&nbsp;This NOFO intends to utilize the U01 activity code. Investigators with expertise and insights into this area of aging research are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO.</p>
