Project Summary/Abstract for the Center for Aging and Policy Studies (CAPS) The overarching goal of the Center for Aging and Policy Studies (CAPS) is to improve the health, well-being, and independence of older adults by directly addressing some of today’s most pressing issues facing middle- age and older adults and the families that care for them. Scientific research at CAPS focuses on two signature themes of health and well-being and family and intergenerational supports and three cross-cutting themes of policy, place, and specific populations. These signature themes are long-standing and essential areas of study, while the cross-cutting themes have emerged as critical determinants of older adult health, well-being, and independence. Significantly, by emphasizing policy and place as cross-cutting themes, CAPS brings a distinctive and vital dimension to the NIA Centers on the Demography and Economics of Aging program. The innovative organizational approach of CAPS provides a firm foundation for achieving its overarching goal. First, CAPS will use a hub-and-spoke operational model encompassing three R1 institutions in Upstate New York with a long history of collaboration on the demography and economics of aging. Syracuse University will serve as the hub, with nearby Cornell University and the University at Albany–State University of New York as the spokes. Guided by state-of-the-art principles of collaborative management, this model combines the benefits of both a brick-and-mortar Center and a virtual network that is nimble, cost-effective, and wide-reaching. Second, CAPS will have a strong, multi-disciplinary, five-person leadership team comprised of scientific leaders experienced in directing NIH-funded Centers and cross-site programs. Third, CAPS will offer a strategically selected and tightly coordinated set of activities across its Administrative Core, Pilot Core, and Dissemination Core. CAPS will achieve its goal through three overall specific aims. Aim 1 is to foster innovative and interdisciplinary research on CAPS signature and cross-cutting themes. CAPS will achieve this aim through multiple dynamic activities, including its integrated pilot project program; teaming program featuring a research incubator; and visiting scholars program. Aim 2 is to enhance human capital in population-based aging research among emerging, underrepresented, and established scholars. CAPS will provide numerous opportunities for scientific development among CAPS affiliates and non-affiliates, including an onsite-online colloquium series, grant writing workshops, and workshops on new methods related to CAPS thematic areas. Aim 3 is to advance understanding of the latest population-based aging research by disseminating findings and data resources to scientists, practitioners, decision makers, and the public. CAPS will draw on the communications expertise at its three sites, and their extensive social media reach, to disseminate information that is timely and broadly accessible. Contributing to the greater scientific enterprise, CAPS will promote the use of its primary data collection through data user sessions at national conferences and by coordinating with other NIA-funded Centers to link CAPS place-based data to existing survey data on older adults.

老化和政策研究中心的项目摘要/摘要（CAPS） 老龄化和政策研究中心（CAP）的总体目标是改善健康，福祉， 和老年人的独立性，直接解决了当今中间的一些最紧迫的问题 年龄和老年人以及关心他们的家庭。 CAPS科学研究的重点是两个签名 健康，福祉，家庭和代际支持的主题以及三个跨切割主题 政策，地点和特定人口的。这些签名主题是长期存在的重要领域 研究，虽然横切主题已成为老年人健康，幸福感的关键决定者 和独立。值得注意的是，通过强调政策并将其作为交叉切割主题，Caps带来了 NIA的独特而重要的维度集中在衰老计划的人口统计学和经济学上。这 CAP的创新组织方法为实现其总体目标提供了坚定的基础。第一的， CAPS将使用轮毂和辐条操作模型，其中包括纽约州北部的三个R1机构 关于衰老的人口和经济学的悠久历史。锡拉丘兹大学将担任 枢纽，靠近康奈尔大学和纽约奥尔巴尼 - 州立大学的大学。 在协作管理的最新原则的指导下，该模型结合了两者的好处 实体中心和一个虚拟网络，敏捷，具有成本效益且广泛。第二，上限 将拥有一个强大的，多学科的，五人的领导团队，完成了经验丰富的科学领导者 指导NIH资助的中心和跨站点计划。第三，CAPS将提供战略性选择和紧密的选择 在其行政核心，飞行员核心和传播核心中协调的一组活动。上限会 目标1是促进创新和跨学科研究 在帽子上签名和交叉切割主题。上限将通过多种动态活动来实现这一目标， 包括其集成的试点项目计划；具有研究孵化器的团队计划；和访问 学者计划。目标2是在新兴的人群研究中增强人力资本， 代表性不足，并确定了学者。上限将为科学提供许多机会 CAPS分支机构和非承包商之间的发展，包括现场座谈会系列 讲习班，以及与CAPS主题领域有关的新方法的讲习班。目标3是提高理解 通过向科学家传播发现和数据资源的最新基于人群的老龄化研究 从业者，决策者和公众。 CAPS将在其三个站点的通信专业知识中借鉴， 以及他们广泛的社交媒体覆盖范围，以传播及时且广泛访问的信息。 为更大的科学企业做出贡献，CAPS将通过 国家会议的数据用户会议和与其他NIA资助的中心协调以联系上限 将基于基于老年人的现有调查数据的数据放置。
