Overall: Abstract The University of Texas at Austin requests P30 funding to establish a new Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging—The Center on Aging and Population Sciences (CAPS). The new Center’s overarching mission is to galvanize novel research that illuminates how biosocial and environmental factors intersect, compound, and cascade throughout the life course to shape health and well-being at older ages. CAPS will provide specialized programming and leadership to foster innovative demographic and population- based research on aging. The Center will leverage substantial faculty strengths and new institutional commitments to greatly amplify the impact of NIA P30 support. CAPS will share administrative resources with the highly successful Population Research Center (PRC) at UT Austin. The extensive experience and expertise of PRC administrators and staff will multiply the impact of CAPS activities to promote exceptional population-based research on aging. The Center’s specific aims are: 1) Expand and promote collaborations among scholars to address complex aging and population health issues, create a lively and supportive interdisciplinary community wherein exchange of ideas is encouraged and common, and grow the number and diversity of researchers in the field at all career stages, 2) Promote and sustain infrastructure development needed to provide high-quality services and resources to foster outstanding population-based research on aging, and 3) Oversee a project development and pilot program to seed new lines of population-based research on aging. Over the next 5 years, CAPS will address critical research questions regarding dynamic and intersecting factors throughout the life course that shape diversity in aging and health within three overarching research themes: 1) Life course precursors of advantage and disadvantage at older ages, 2) Family demography, social engagement, and social isolation, and 3) Place, aging, and health. Funding is requested for two infrastructure cores. The Administrative and Research Suppoert Core will set programmatic and service priorities; build an interdisciplinary community of population scientists at the University; provide outstanding services that facilitate the development of large-scale population research; ensure coordination between cores, and serve as the communications hub between CAPS, NIA, and the Coordinating Center. The Program Development and Pilot Core will generate novel scientific projects of well-established scientists as well as early-stage and new-to- aging scholars to significantly advance population-based research on aging; build CAPS research portfolio via the Center’s pilot project program, and foster evolution of nascent ideas into proposals for extramural funding. CAPS will prioritize pilot projects that are most likely to advance knowledge, address NIA priorities, shift conceptual paradigms, develop novel sources of data, and lead to major NIA funding within CAPS themes.

总体：摘要 德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校要求P30资金在人口统计学上建立一个新的中心 衰老的经济学 - 衰老和人口科学中心（CAPS）。新中心的 总体任务是激发新的研究，以阐明生物社会和环境因素如何 在整个生命过程中相交，复合和级联，以塑造年龄较大的人的健康和福祉。 CAPS将提供专业的编程和领导才能，以促进创新的人口统计和人口 - 基于衰老的研究。该中心将利用实质性的教师优势和新的机构 致力于大大放大NIA P30支持的影响。上限将与 UT Austin的非常成功的人口研究中心（PRC）。丰富的经验和专业知识 中国管理人员和员工将增加CAPS活动的影响，以促进卓越的基于人群的活动 衰老研究。该中心的具体目的是：1）扩展和促进学者之间的合作 解决复杂的衰老和人口健康问题，创建一个活泼和支持的跨学科社区 其中鼓励和共同的思想交流，并增加研究人员的数量和多样性 在所有职业阶段的领域，2）促进和维持提供高质量的基础设施发展 服务和资源以促进基于人群的衰老研究，以及3）监督一个项目 开发和试点计划播种新的基于人群的衰老研究。 在接下来的5年中，CAPS将解决有关动态和相交的关键研究问题 在整个生命过程中，在三项总体研究中塑造衰老和健康的多样性的因素 主题：1）年龄较大的年龄段优势和劣势的生活课程前体，2）家庭障碍，社会 参与和社会隔离，以及3）位置，衰老和健康。要求提供两个基础设施的资金 内核。行政和研究的支持核心将设定程序化和服务优先级；建立一个 大学人口科学家跨学科社区；提供促进的出色服务 大规模人口研究的发展；确保核心之间的协调，并充当 CAPS，NIA和协调中心之间的通信中心。计划开发和飞行员 核心将产生成熟的科学家以及早期的新科学项目以及新到新的科学项目 衰老学者可以显着提高基于人群的衰老研究；建立CAPS研究组合通过 该中心的试点项目计划，并促进了新生想法的发展，以提出壁外资金的建议。 CAPS将优先考虑最有可能提高知识，解决NIA优先事项的试点项目，转变 概念范式，开发新的数据来源，并导致帽子主题中的主要NIA资金。
