Abstract Led by Wake Forest School of Medicine since its inception in 2005, the Coordinating Center (CC) for the NIA- funded Older Americans Independence Centers (OAIC) Program has become a dynamic force for initiating, facilitating, and coordinating activities that maximize interactions and collaborations within the OAIC network and between the OAIC network, other NIA programs, and the aging research community. During this funding cycle, the CC has fostered dramatic growth in the number and impact of OAIC collaborative projects. With this cycle, the CC will be awarded as a U24 cooperative mechanism with enhanced funding to pursue new initiatives and build on CC accomplishments. This proposal will take advantage of these positive changes to further enhance the impact of the OAIC program with the following 4 bold Specific Aims, each of which includes several innovations and new initiatives, and which were informed by our preliminary data, including semi-structured interviews with each OAIC director and with NIA program officers. Aim 1. Enhance communications and coordination within the OAIC program and with the greater aging research community. Aim 2. Facilitate and promote OAIC-themed collaborative research. Aim 3. Enhance the development of the next generation of researchers in aging. Aim 4. Establish a process for accelerating dissemination and implementation of key OAIC research findings. Our aims will be achieved by: 1) building on our 12 years of experience and earned trust in progressively building collaborations; 2) adding several innovative strategies to our current array of well-functioning programs and processes; 3) expanding our dynamic leadership team (below); 4) obtaining regular input and guidance from the OAIC Directors Committee and the NIA program office; 5) empanelling 4 working groups to assist in carrying out each of the Aims; and 6) utilizing a formal, structured plan to continually evaluate progress toward each aim and the overall program. The CC will be led by a cohesive team of highly experienced OAIC leaders with complementary skills and well- defined roles: Dalane W. Kitzman, MD, project PI, associated with the CC since its inception and Director since 2015; Michael Miller, PhD, a CC co-investigator since its inception; Karen Bandeen-Roche, MD (Johns Hopkins), leader for Aim 3; Jeff Williamson, MD, MHS (Wake Forest), leader for Aim 4, and Nicholas Pajewski, PhD, junior faculty `leader-in-training' for Aim 2. This proposed renewal of the CC will further enhance and extend OAIC collaboration, provide vital new translational opportunities, particularly for junior faculty, promote development of new investigators, and disseminate key OAIC research findings to positively influence the care of older Americans.

摘要 自2005年成立以来，由维克森林医学院领导，NIA协调中心（CC）- 资助的美国老年人独立中心（OAIC）计划已成为一个动态的力量， 促进和协调各项活动，最大限度地提高办公室信息中心网络内的互动和协作 以及OAIC网络、其他NIA项目和老龄化研究社区之间的联系。在此次融资中 在这一周期中，CC促进了OAIC合作项目的数量和影响的急剧增长。与此 循环，CC将被授予作为一个U24合作机制，增加资金，以追求新的 并在CC成就的基础上再接再厉。该提案将利用这些积极变化， 通过以下4个具体目标进一步增强OAIC计划的影响力， 包括几项创新和新举措，并根据我们的初步数据，包括 与每一位OAIC主任和NIA项目官员进行半结构化访谈。目标1。增强 在OAIC计划内以及与更大的老龄化研究进行沟通和协调 社区目标2.促进和推动以OAIC为主题的合作研究。目标3。增强 培养下一代老龄化研究人员。目标4。建立一个流程， 加快传播和执行审计和调查办公室的主要研究成果。 我们的目标将通过以下方式实现：1）基于我们12年的经验和赢得的信任， 建立合作关系; 2）在我们现有的一系列运作良好的项目中加入几项创新战略 和流程; 3）扩大我们充满活力的领导团队（见下文）; 4）获得定期的投入和指导 来自OAIC董事委员会和NIA项目办公室的人员; 5）组成4个工作组， 实现每一个目标; 6）利用正式的、结构化的计划，不断评估进展情况， 每个目标和总体规划。 协调委员会将由一个具有凝聚力的团队领导，该团队由经验丰富的OAIC领导人组成，他们具有互补的技能， 饰演Dalane W. Kitzman，医学博士，项目PI，自CC成立以来一直与CC合作，自 2015年; Michael米勒博士，自CC成立以来一直是CC的联合研究者; Karen Bandeen-Roche，医学博士（Johns 霍普金斯），目标3的领导人;杰夫威廉姆森，医学博士，MHS（维克森林），目标4的领导人，和尼古拉斯帕夫斯基， 博士，目标2初级教员“培训领导人”。 CC的拟议更新将进一步加强和扩大OAIC的合作，提供重要的新 翻译机会，特别是初级教师，促进新的研究人员的发展， 传播OAIC的主要研究成果，以积极影响美国老年人的护理。
