About this opportunity

The National Institute on Aging is forecasting a Notice of Funding Opportunity for the Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Centers program under CFDA 93.866 (Aging Research), utilizing the P30 activity code for centers of excellence. The NOFO has not yet been published; applications are not currently being solicited, and no application deadline has been set. The forecast is provided to allow prospective applicants time to develop meaningful collaborations.

The program is open to a broad range of eligible applicants: higher education institutions (public and private), 501(c)(3) nonprofits, non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, state and local governments, tribal governments (federally and non-federally recognized), small businesses, for-profit organizations, school districts, housing authorities, faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, foreign institutions, U.S. territories or possessions, and eligible federal agencies.

The goal is to establish centers of excellence in geriatrics research and research education that increase scientific knowledge toward maintaining or restoring independence in older persons. Applicants must identify a specific area of focus in aging research aligned with the OAIC program mission, demonstrating how progress in that area could contribute to greater independence for substantial populations of older adults and offer education opportunities in aging research. This area of focus should serve as the organizing theme for all proposed OAIC activities.

Award structure, funding ceiling, period of performance, cost-sharing requirements, and evaluation criteria are not specified in this forecast notice. The National Institutes of Health typically conducts peer review over six to nine months from application to funding decision and may issue awards annually with project periods not exceeding five years.

Forecast synopsis

The National Institute on Aging intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for the Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Centers (OAICs) award. The goal of the OAIC program is to establish centers of excellence in geriatrics research and research education to increase scientific knowledge leading to better ways to maintain or restore independence in older persons. OAIC awards are designed to develop or strengthen programs that focus on, and sustain progress in, a key area of aging research related to the mission of the OAIC program. Applicants should identify an area of focus in which progress could contribute to greater independence for substantial populations of older persons and offer opportunities for education in aging research. This area of focus should be a common theme around which all proposed OAIC activities are organized.

Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO will utilize the P30 activity code. Investigators with expertise and insights into this area of aging research are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO.
