Description: This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications to establish a Resource Development Network (RDN) focused on the infrastructure needed to promote and support coordination, collaboration, and innovation across deeply phenotyped longitudinal behavioral and social studies of aging. This NOFO calls for investigator teams to design an innovative network that will serve the field at large and advance collaboration and coordination among studies. RDN activities must include: The creation of a publicly-available meta-data catalog on a web-based platform that will identify and describe existing small- to mid-size deeply phenotyped longitudinal studies designed to investigate factors affecting health and well-being in later life and characterized by rich psychological, social, behavioral, and biobehavioral content; outreach to investigators that will stimulate innovation, collaboration, dissemination, and utilization of the meta-data catalog and associated datasets; methodological consultation services for investigators interested in data harmonization projects and/or coordinated data analysis with deeply phenotyped longitudinal studies; and support for next generation trainees and early career investigators to initiate data harmonization and/or coordinated data-analysis projects utilizing deeply phenotyped longitudinal studies to answer questions relevant to aging and the adult lifespan.
