Projects must involve collaboration between at least two faculty members from different disciplines, incorporate perspectives from aging people or relevant literature, and demonstrate feasible methods, innovation, interdisciplinary integration, and potential real-world impact. Projects may request up to $60,000 for a 12-month performance period from December 1, 2026, through November 30, 2027. Awardee teams may request an optional equipment supplement of up to $30,000, subject to eligibility and an equipment justification and budget estimate. The full application must include a project summary, signature page, project description of no more than five pages, references and citations, interdisciplinary collaboration statement, budget, budget justification, biosketches, current and pending support, and future funding prospects; equipment-related materials are optional. A letter of intent using the required template must precede a full proposal, and only applicants submitting an LOI will be considered for the full application stage.
