DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): NBER Center for Aging and Health Research This application is to renew NIA funding for the NBER Center for Aging and Health Research for the next five years. The Center has two primary aims. The first is to integrate and support an extensive network of research and related activities in aging at the NBER. The second is to stimulate new research development on aging issues, systematically advancing the science of aging-related research by economists. We propose seven interrelated themes of research for the next five years of the center: (1) trends in health and disability, (2) health care costs and productivity, (3) implications of health policy reform, (4) possibilities for extending working livs, (5) work and retirement around the world, (6) health and financial wellbeing, and (7) the broad reach of education. These themes are selected because of their particular relevance to the wellbeing of people as they age, and because of their timeliness based on the challenges and opportunities of the next two decades. The Center will continue to operate through four Core components with separate, but highly coordinated functions: an administrative and research support Core, a program development (pilot) Core, an external innovative network Core, and an external research resources support and dissemination Core. The functions are coordinated in the sense that the thematic directions of our research agenda, as they evolve over time, will be jointly supported by each of the Core components of the Center, creating an intra-Center synergy in new research development.

描述（由申请人提供）：NBER老龄化和健康研究中心本申请是为了延长NIA的资金为NBER中心老龄化和健康研究在未来五年。该中心有两个主要目标。第一个目标是整合和支持国家经济研究局广泛的老龄化研究和相关活动网络。二是促进老龄问题的新研究发展，系统推进经济学家对老龄问题的科学研究。我们提出了该中心未来五年的七个相互关联的研究主题：（1）健康和残疾的趋势，（2）医疗保健成本和生产力，（3）卫生政策改革的影响，（4）延长工作寿命的可能性，（5）世界各地的工作和退休，（6）健康和财务福利，（7）教育的广泛覆盖面。之所以选择这些主题，是因为这些主题与人们随着年龄的增长而产生的福祉特别相关，也是因为这些主题基于未来二十年的挑战和机遇而具有及时性。该中心将继续通过四个核心组成部分运作，这些组成部分具有独立但高度协调的功能：行政和研究支持核心，项目开发（试点）核心，外部创新网络核心以及外部研究资源支持和传播核心。这些职能是协调的，因为我们的研究议程的主题方向，随着时间的推移，将由中心的每个核心组成部分共同支持，在新的研究开发中创造中心内的协同作用。
