The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a Project Grant of $118,133 to Augusta University Research Institute, Inc. (doing business as Georgia Health Sciences) on July 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The Program for Aging Research in the Summer (PARIS) provides medical students from Puerto Rico and other U.S. locations with structured summer research opportunities in gerontology and geriatric medicine at Augusta University. The program delivers comprehensive support services including transportation, housing, and research mentorship for eight to ten participating medical students annually from four medical schools. By exposing future physicians to aging research and clinical geriatrics practice, PARIS aims to cultivate sustained professional interest in aging medicine and address the critical shortage of geriatricians in the U.S. healthcare system, where currently only approximately two geriatricians serve every 100,000 Americans. The five-year award period runs through June 30, 2031, building on four prior years of successful program implementation that has generated growing applicant interest. This funding supports a structured pipeline initiative designed to address both the critical knowledge gaps in aging mechanisms and age-related diseases and the workforce development challenges in geriatric medicine as the U.S. population ages significantly over the coming decades.Federal Grant Award Summary
