项目摘要

The problems of an aging society transcend the boundaries of any specific discipline and play out across multiple biologic and societal domains. The six National Institute on Aging center programs address these problems but typically from a specific disciplinary perspective. To provide a mechanism to foster cross-disciplinary collaborations the Research Centers Collaborative Network (RCCN) was established in 2008. It is led by the American Federation for Aging Research and the Wake Forest School of Medicine. The RCCN addresses the challenge of building multidisciplinary collaborations by employing 5 complementary strategies: 1) identifying intellectual opportunities that are best advanced by inter-center collaboration; 2) stimulating the development of cross-center collaborations; 3) providing new opportunities for early career researchers to expand their multidisciplinary collaborative network; and 4) leveraging RCCN activities to bring additional resources to multidisciplinary aging research. Its first two years were highly successful. In a highly praised workshop series, it brought together key thought leaders from each of the 6 NIA center programs, offered didactic programs for early career researchers, established a Webinar series, worked with NIA center coordinating centers to coordinate activities and promote dissemination, and worked with the CTSA’s Inclusion of Older Adults workgroup to increase recruitment of older adults to clinical research among other achievements. Its goals going forward build on these achievements and introduce important innovations and refinements. The RCCN’s specific aims for the next cycle are to: 1. Stimulate cross-center collaboration through: a) Workshops focused on cross-cutting scientific themes each relevant to 4 or more center programs; and b) Pilot grants supporting the initiation of cross-center collaborations. 2. Provide educational opportunities for early career investigators to build competencies in multidisciplinary and cross-institutional research. 3. Work with NIA Center program coordinating centers and other NIA supported research networks to: a) disseminate cutting edge multidisciplinary science; b) foster connections between the 6 NIA center programs and other NIA-supported research networks; and c) develop tools, standards and guidelines to promote multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional research. 4. Expand its impact through fostering applications to foundations, the CTSA program and other potential sponsors whose interests align with NIA Center programs. The RCCN employs multiple evaluation strategies designed to strengthen and adapt its programs and to gauge its impact in fostering multidisciplinary approaches to solving the problems facing older adults.

老龄化社会的问题超越了任何特定学科和游戏的界限跨越多个生物和社会领域的六个国家老龄化研究所中心。项目解决这些问题，但通常是从特定学科的角度出发。提供促进研究中心跨学科合作的机制协作网络（RCCN）成立于2008年，由美国联合会牵头 RCCN 致力于衰老研究和维克森林医学院的研究。通过采用 5 种互补策略建立多学科合作的挑战： 1) 确定最能通过中心间合作推进的智力机会；2) 3）促进跨中心合作的发展；早期职业研究人员扩大他们的多学科合作网络；4) 利用 RCCN 的活动为多学科老龄化研究带来更多资源。前两年非常成功，举办了一系列备受赞誉的研讨会。来自 6 个 NIA 中心项目的关键思想领袖为早期教育提供了教学项目职业研究人员，建立了网络研讨会系列，与 NIA 中心协调中心合作协调活动并促进传播，并与 CTSA 的包容性合作老年人工作组将增加招募老年人参与临床研究等其未来的目标建立在这些成就的基础上，并引入了重要的内容。 RCCN 下一个周期的具体目标是： 1. 激励。通过以下方式进行跨中心合作： a) 侧重于跨领域科学主题的研讨会每个与 4 个或更多中心项目相关；和 b) 支持启动的试点补助金 2. 为早期职业研究者提供教育机会。培养多学科和跨机构研究的能力。 3. 与 NIA 合作。中心项目协调中心和其他 NIA 支持的研究网络：a) 传播前沿的多学科科学；b) 促进 6 NIA 之间的联系；中心项目和其他 NIA 支持的研究网络；以及 c) 开发工具、标准 4. 促进多学科和多机构研究的指导方针。通过促进对基金会、CTSA 计划和其他潜在项目的申请来产生影响 RCCN 雇用了多个与 NIA 中心项目利益一致的赞助商。旨在加强和调整其计划并衡量其影响的评价战略促进多学科方法来解决老年人面临的问题。
