Through a contract with the IOM, NIA will participate in the meetings and workshops of the Institute of Medicine Forum on Aging, Disability, and Independence, organized and chaired by John Rowe. Participation in the Forum will provide the opportunity for NIA to influence the topical focus of Forum activities. Specifically, during the course of Forum meetings, members identify topics for public workshops and other information-gathering activities (e.g., surveys, interviews and commissioned papers) of benefit to NIA program activities. NIA has long supported work on old age disability trends and currently funds the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS), a new resource for the scientific study of functioning in later life. Interaction with this diverse expert group could help develop new areas of research on old age disability as well as provide insights to research needs that could influence study design for NHATS.

通过与IOM签订的合同，NIA将参加由John Rowe组织和主持的关于老龄化、残疾和独立的医学研究所论坛的会议和研讨会。参加论坛将为NIA提供影响论坛活动主题焦点的机会。具体而言，在论坛会议期间，成员确定对NIA项目活动有益的公共研讨会和其他信息收集活动（例如，调查、访谈和委托论文）的主题。NIA长期以来一直支持有关老年残疾趋势的工作，目前正在资助国家健康和老龄化趋势研究（NHATS），这是对老年生活功能进行科学研究的新资源。与这个多样化的专家组的互动可以帮助开发老年残疾研究的新领域，并为可能影响NHATS研究设计的研究需求提供见解。
