Description
The MUSC Center for Healthy Aging (CfHA) Pilot Award Program provides funding for innovative, interdisciplinary research projects focused on healthy aging. The program seeks to advance research aligned with the National Institute on Aging's strategic directions, spanning genetic, biological, clinical, behavioral, social, and economic aspects of aging. The goal is to facilitate data collection for future federal grant applications and to promote novel, multidisciplinary research that improves quality of life as individuals age. Projects may range from fundamental biology of aging to translational, clinical, and population health research, or expand existing research into new areas.
