项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract for the Center for Aging and Policy Studies (CAPS) The overarching goal of the Center for Aging and Policy Studies (CAPS) is to improve the health, well-being, and independence of older adults by directly addressing some of today’s most pressing issues facing middle- age and older adults and the families that care for them. Scientific research at CAPS focuses on two signature themes of health and well-being and family and intergenerational supports and three cross-cutting themes of policy, place, and specific populations. These signature themes are long-standing and essential areas of study, while the cross-cutting themes have emerged as critical determinants of older adult health, well-being, and independence. Significantly, by emphasizing policy and place as cross-cutting themes, CAPS brings a distinctive and vital dimension to the NIA Centers on the Demography and Economics of Aging program. The innovative organizational approach of CAPS provides a firm foundation for achieving its overarching goal. First, CAPS will use a hub-and-spoke operational model encompassing three R1 institutions in Upstate New York with a long history of collaboration on the demography and economics of aging. Syracuse University will serve as the hub, with nearby Cornell University and the University at Albany–State University of New York as the spokes. Guided by state-of-the-art principles of collaborative management, this model combines the benefits of both a brick-and-mortar Center and a virtual network that is nimble, cost-effective, and wide-reaching. Second, CAPS will have a strong, multi-disciplinary, five-person leadership team comprised of scientific leaders experienced in directing NIH-funded Centers and cross-site programs. Third, CAPS will offer a strategically selected and tightly coordinated set of activities across its Administrative Core, Pilot Core, and Dissemination Core. CAPS will achieve its goal through three overall specific aims. Aim 1 is to foster innovative and interdisciplinary research on CAPS signature and cross-cutting themes. CAPS will achieve this aim through multiple dynamic activities, including its integrated pilot project program; teaming program featuring a research incubator; and visiting scholars program. Aim 2 is to enhance human capital in population-based aging research among emerging, underrepresented, and established scholars. CAPS will provide numerous opportunities for scientific development among CAPS affiliates and non-affiliates, including an onsite-online colloquium series, grant writing workshops, and workshops on new methods related to CAPS thematic areas. Aim 3 is to advance understanding of the latest population-based aging research by disseminating findings and data resources to scientists, practitioners, decision makers, and the public. CAPS will draw on the communications expertise at its three sites, and their extensive social media reach, to disseminate information that is timely and broadly accessible. Contributing to the greater scientific enterprise, CAPS will promote the use of its primary data collection through data user sessions at national conferences and by coordinating with other NIA-funded Centers to link CAPS place-based data to existing survey data on older adults.

老龄化与政策研究中心 (CAPS) 项目摘要/摘要老龄化与政策研究中心 (CAPS) 的总体目标是改善健康、福祉、通过直接解决当今中产阶级面临的一些最紧迫的问题，提高老年人的独立性 CAPS 的科学研究重点关注两个特征。健康和福祉、家庭和代际支持以及三个跨领域主题这些标志性主题是政策、地点和特定人群的长期且重要的领域。研究表明，跨领域主题已成为老年人健康、福祉的关键决定因素，值得注意的是，通过强调政策和地方作为跨领域主题，CAPS 带来了 NIA 人口学和老龄化经济学中心项目的独特且重要的方面。 CAPS 的创新组织方法为实现其总体目标奠定了坚实的基础。 CAPS 将采用中心辐射型运营模式，涵盖纽约州北部的三个 R1 机构雪城大学在人口学和老龄化经济学方面有着悠久的合作历史。以附近的康奈尔大学和奥尔巴尼大学-纽约州立大学为辐条。该模型以最先进的协作管理原则为指导，结合了两者的优点实体中心和灵活、经济高效且影响广泛的虚拟网络。将拥有一支强大的、多学科的、五人的领导团队，由经验丰富的科学领导者组成第三，CAPS 将提供经过战略选择和严格控制的项目。将在其行政核心、试点核心和传播核心之间开展一系列协调一致的活动。通过三个总体具体目标来实现其目标，目标 1 是促进创新和跨学科研究。关于 CAPS 签名和跨领域主题，CAPS 将通过多项动态活动来实现这一目标，包括以研究孵化器和参观为特色的综合试点项目计划；学者计划的目标 2 是加强新兴、人口老龄化研究中的人力资本。代表性不足的知名学者 CAPS 将为科学界提供大量机会。 CAPS 附属机构和非附属机构之间的发展，包括现场在线研讨会系列、拨款写作目标 3 是促进理解。通过向科学家传播研究结果和数据资源来了解最新的基于人口的老龄化研究，从业者、决策者和公众将利用其三个站点的传播专业知识，及其广泛的社交媒体影响力，以传播及时且广泛可及的信息。为更大的科学事业做出贡献，CAPS 将通过以下方式促进其主要数据收集的使用：在国家会议上举办数据用户会议，并与 NIA 资助的其他中心协调以链接 CAPS 基于地点的数据与现有的老年人调查数据相结合。
