Summary: Supports a Data Coordinating Center to integrate, disseminate, and visualize multiscale mouse brain datasets for aging and Alzheimer’s disease research.
Key Information: This is a forecasted opportunity—applications are not yet being solicited.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), intends to invite applications for a Data Coordinating Center to support the Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Brain Atlas (AD-MBA). The Center will serve as a unified research resource, integrating and disseminating multi-omic and connectomic mouse brain datasets produced by the NIA AD Multimodal Atlas Projects (AD-MAPs). Key responsibilities include leveraging the AD Knowledge Portal for data hosting and sharing, facilitating collaborative analyses among participating teams, developing tools for multiscale integration of datasets, and creating a web-based interface for broad data access and visualization. This initiative aims to accelerate research in aging and Alzheimer’s disease by providing the research community with accessible, integrated data resources.
