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的NIA协调中心(CC)- 资助的老年美国人独立中心(OAIC)计划已成为发起、 促进和协调各种活动，以最大限度地提高OAIC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。在这笔资金中 在这一周期中，CC促进了OAIC合作项目的数量和影响的戏剧性增长。有了这个 周期，协调委员会将被授予U24合作机制，并获得更多资金，以寻求新的 倡议，并在CC成就的基础上再接再厉。这项提议将利用这些积极的变化来 通过以下4个大胆的具体目标进一步增强OAIC计划的影响，每个目标 包括一些创新和新举措，这些创新和新举措由我们的初步数据提供信息，包括 对每个OAIC主任和NIA项目官员进行半结构化面谈。目标1.增强 在OAIC计划内以及与更大的老龄化研究之间进行沟通和协调 社区。目标2.促进和促进以OAIC为主题的合作研究。目标3.加强 下一代老龄化研究人员的发展。目标4.建立流程以实现 加快OAIC关键研究成果的传播和实施。 我们的目标将通过以下方式实现：1)在我们12年的经验基础上逐步获得信任 建立协作；2)在我们目前运行良好的计划中增加几个创新战略 和流程；3)扩大我们充满活力的领导团队(见下文)；4)获得定期投入和指导 来自OAIC董事委员会和NIA计划办公室；5)安排4个工作组协助 实现每一个目标；以及6)利用正式的、结构化的计划来持续评估进展情况 每个目标和总体规划。 协调委员会将由一支由经验丰富的OAIC领导人组成的具有凝聚力的团队领导，他们具有互补的技能和良好的 确定的角色：Dalane W.Kitzman，医学博士，项目PI，自CC成立以来一直与CC联系，自 2015年；迈克尔·米勒，博士，CC成立以来的合作研究员；Karen Bandeen-Roche，医学博士(Johns 霍普金斯)，AIM 3的领导者；杰夫·威廉姆森，医学博士，MHS(维克森林)，AIM 4的领导者，以及尼古拉斯·帕杰斯基， 博士学位，初级教员目标2的“培训带头人”。 拟议的CC续签将进一步加强和扩大OAIC合作，提供至关重要的新 翻译机会，特别是初级教员的机会，促进了新研究人员的发展，以及 传播OAIC的关键研究成果，以积极影响美国老年人的护理。
