The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a 5-year, $1,250,548 Project Grant under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The grant will establish the Establishing Mechanisms of Benefit to Reinforce the Alzheimer's Care Experience (EMBRACE) AD/ADRD Roybal Center, which aims to:
- Attract and support researchers to test mechanistically driven dementia care interventions across the NIH research stage model;
- Advance the science of testing mechanisms of tailored dementia care interventions in home and community settings; and
- Conduct a robust evaluation of the EMBRACE Center's progress.
The EMBRACE Center will leverage the University of Minnesota's expertise and national collaborations to provide consultation and resources for investigators testing mechanisms in dementia care intervention development and trials. This effort aims to facilitate the progression of dementia care research from early-stage to effectiveness and implementation testing.
