Michigan Center on the Demography of Aging

项目摘要 这项提案要求为密歇根老年人口统计中心(MiCDA)27-31年提供资金。这个 MiCDA的总体目标是在三个标志性领域推进老龄化人口统计学的研究：(1) 丰富数据基础设施以推动人口老龄化方面的突破；(2)变化 老年残疾和痴呆症及相关家庭照料问题的人口学特征；(3)生命历程决定因素 晚年的健康和幸福以及相关的差异。将通过以下核心促进研究： 行政和研究支助核心(核心A)将规划和执行以下行政职能 MiCDA的活动；管理MiCDA的咨询委员会；领导战略规划和远景规划 提高MiCDA在关键选民中的知名度。方案开发核心(核心B)将继续其 重点加强MiCDA的师资力量，并资助突出标志性主题的试点项目。外在的 创新网络核心(核心C)将通过三个方面促进中心标志性领域的新研究 正在进行的和一个新的网络：趋势，它将正式扩大其重点，包括残疾和 痴呆症趋势；HRS姐妹研究，将继续为新出现的研究提供技术援助 国外；美国老龄化纵向研究，将继续关注新兴调查 贯穿国家投资局资助的小组研究的方法学和衡量问题；以及关于 家庭护理的人口学，它将强调基本人口统计过程的变化 正在影响着老年人家庭照料的各个方面。远程数据飞地核心(核心E)将 提供虚拟数据飞地，以方便访问受限的老化相关数据。下一个周期的目标 包括扩展MiCDA Enclave的数据产品和扩大其用户基础，同时确保 系统性能可靠。

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.
