The overall goal of the Research and Development Core is to provide an environment and support that will enhance the ability of faculty scientists at the University of Michigan to enter into and/or conduct significant research programs on the biology of aging, Particular emphasis is placed upon exposing Michigan biogerontologists to the most recent developments in the field and in supporting innovative preliminary research projects. A research mentorship program will be set up to support an expected group of new faculty hirings during the next five years of the grant. The following specific aims will promote the overall objectives of this Core: 1. To organize and support a series of annual workshops on the biology of aging that will introduce local researchers and trainees to major newly developing sectors in the field of biogerontology research. 2. Through the workshops, to facilitate interactions among researchers from other Shock Centers and to encourage collaborative research, 3. To award two pilot grants per year to promising junior faculty members for the purpose of developing new preliminary data that will make them competitive for independent outside research funding. 4. To develop a system of mentoring junior faculty scientists by senior biogerontologists. 5. To stimulate entry into aging research by senior investigators who are not gerontologists by funding exploratory research through the pilot grant program.

研究和发展核心的总体目标是提供一个环境和支持，以增强密歇根大学的教师科学家进入和/或开展有关衰老生物学的重要研究计划的能力，特别是将密歇根州生物生物学家展示到该领域的最新发展以及支持创新的创新的前进性研究项目。将建立一项研究指导计划，以支持赠款的未来五年中预期的新教师雇用。以下具体目标将促进该核心的总体目标： 1。组织和支持有关衰老生物学的一系列年度研讨会，这些研讨会将向当地的研究人员和受训者介绍生物生态学研究领域的主要发展领域。 2。通过研讨会，以促进其他冲击中心的研究人员之间的互动，并鼓励合作研究， 3。每年向有前途的初级教师授予两项试点赠款，以制定新的初步数据，这将使它们在独立的外部研究资金方面具有竞争力。 4。开发高级生物生态学家指导初级教师科学家的系统。 5。刺激高级研究人员通过通过“试点赠款计划”资助探索性研究的高级研究人员进入老龄化研究。
