Description: The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to establish the role and impact of brain aging in the development and progression of Alzheimers disease (AD).Comprehensive and integrative characterization of brain aging will help to define the mechanisms underlying the shift from healthy brain aging to the neuropathological processes of AD, knowledge that is critical for the design and development of effective interventions.Cross-disciplinary approaches to integrate findings on AD with research on the basic biology and neurobiology of aging are encouraged.
