Program Development Core

项目开发核心：项目总结/摘要 项目开发核心（PDC）将在征集、审查、选择和 根据中心和国家执行机构的总体目标监测试点项目。的首要目标 PDC是：1）从早期职业和其他研究人员那里征求各种各样的试点建议， 在健康老龄化行为的纵向研究中进行创新的、基于人口的社会科学研究 （HABs）; 2）在中心执行委员会（EC）的指导下审查和选择提案， 外部咨询委员会（EAB）根据中心的目标;和3）提供监测和 确保CHABLIS的支持，以帮助试点项目实现其目标，并获得外部资金。 我们建议在第一年进行四个与中心主题有关的试验项目， 观察性和干预性研究： 1.老龄化劳动力替代工作安排的兴起和后果; PI：Dmitri Koustas，博士，助理教授，公共政策的哈里斯学院 2.药物遗传学在老年人高利用率计划中的影响 住院主要研究者：Peter奥唐纳医学博士，副教授，医学系 3.种族，肤色和歧视对健康和衰老的意义。PI：Ellis P.

PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT CORE: PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The Program Development Core (PDC) will support the Center in the solicitation, review, selection, and monitoring of pilot projects consistent with the goals of the overall Center and the NIA. The primary goals of the PDC are: 1) to solicit a diverse range of pilot proposals from early career and other researchers that promote innovative, population-based social science research in the longitudinal study of healthy aging behaviors (HABs); 2) to review and select proposals with guidance from the Center’s Executive Committee (EC) and External Advisory Board (EAB) in accordance with the goals of the Center; and 3) to provide monitoring and ensure CHABLIS support to help pilot projects achieve their aims and obtain external funding. We propose four pilot projects in year 1 related to the Center theme of studying HABs through observational and interventional studies: 1. The Rise and Consequences of Alternative Work Arrangements for the Aging Workforce; PI: Dmitri Koustas, PhD, Assistant Professor, Harris School of Public Policy 2. Impact of Pharmacogenetics in a High Utilizer Program for Older Adults at Increased Risk of Hospitalization. PI: Peter O’Donnell MD, Associate Professor, Dept of Medicine 3. The Significance of Race, Skin Color, and Discrimination for Health and Aging. PI: Ellis P. Monk, Jr. PhD, Assistant Professor, Dept of Sociology, Harvard University; Co-I: Louise Hawkley, PhD, NORC 4. Health Care Spending, Mortality and the Macroeconomic and Distributional Effects of Health Inequality at Older Ages, Greg Kaplan, PhD, Professor, Dept of Economics We believe that these four projects represent the breadth of opportunity at UChicago to examine issues salient, and indeed critical, to older adult well-being. We highlight that three of the four pilots are led by junior faculty. We also note that two of the four draw on NSHAP and one on CCP, both flagship projects at our institution (and now linked through our External Innovative Network Core).
