Michigan Center on the Demography of Aging

项目摘要 该提案要求为密歇根州老龄人口中心（MiCDA）的27-31年提供资金。的 MiCDA的总体目标是在三个签名领域推进老龄化人口统计学研究：（1） 丰富数据基础设施，推动老龄化人口学的突破;（2）不断变化的 老年残疾和痴呆的人口统计学及相关的家庭负担问题;（3）生命历程的决定因素 晚年的健康和福祉以及相关的差距。将通过以下核心促进研究： 行政和研究支助核心（核心A）将规划和执行行政职能， MiCDA的活动;管理MiCDA的咨询委员会;并领导战略规划和愿景， 提高MiCDA在关键选区的知名度。项目开发核心（核心B）将继续其 重点加强MiCDA的教师队伍，并资助突出签名主题的试点项目。外部 创新网络核心（核心C）将通过以下三个方面促进中心签名领域的新研究 一个正在进行的网络和一个新的网络：“趋势”，该网络将正式扩大其重点， 痴呆症趋势; HRS姐妹研究，将继续为新兴研究提供技术援助 国外;美国老龄化纵向研究，该委员会将继续侧重于新出现的调查 方法和衡量问题，这些问题贯穿国家评估机构资助的小组研究;以及一个关于 家庭护理人口统计学，将强调基本人口过程的变化 正在影响老年人家庭生活的各个方面。远程数据飞地核心（Core E） 提供虚拟数据飞地，以方便访问受限制的老龄化相关数据。下一个周期的目标 包括扩大MiCDA飞地的数据产品和扩大其用户群，同时确保继续 可靠的系统性能。

Project Summary This proposal requests funding for Years 27-31 of Michigan Center on the Demography of Aging (MiCDA). The overarching goal of MiCDA is to advance research on the demography of aging in three signature areas: (1) Enriching data infrastructure to advance breakthroughs in the demography of aging; (2) The changing demography of late-life disability and dementia and related family caregiving issues; (3) Life course determinants of health and wellbeing in later life and related disparities. Research will be promoted through the following cores: The Administration and Research Support Core (Core A) will plan and execute administrative functions for MiCDA's activities; manage MiCDA's Advisory Committee; and lead strategic planning and visioning while enhancing MiCDA's visibility with key constituencies. The Program Development Core (Core B) will continue its focus on strengthening MiCDA's faculty and funding pilot projects that highlight signature themes. The External Innovative Network Core (Core C) will facilitate new research in the Center's signature areas through three ongoing and one new network: TRENDS, which will formally expand its focus to include both disability and dementia trends; HRS Sister Studies, which will continue to provide technical assistance to emerging studies abroad; Longitudinal Studies of Aging in the U.S., which will continue to focus on emerging survey methodological and measurement issues that cross-cut NIA-funded panel studies; and a new network on the Demography of Family Caregiving, which will emphasize how changes in fundamental demographic processes are influencing various facets of family caregiving for older adults. The Remote Data Enclave Core (Core E) will provide a Virtual Data Enclave to facilitate access to restricted aging-related data. Goals for the coming cycle include expanding the MiCDA enclave's data products and expanding its user base while ensuring continued reliable system performance.
