To: Members of NBER Aging and Health Care Programs.
NIA has just issued this new funding opportunity (next due date
October 3, 2012):
Macroeconomic Aspects of Population Aging (R01) (PA-12-186)
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-12-186.html
Economic productivity is an integral part of a society's ability to
produce health and well-being. Macroeconomic factors such as the
size and composition of the labor force, domestic and foreign
investment, the design of public institutions, and technological
development all influence productivity. All of the factors, in turn,
can be influenced by population aging. The NIA Division of Behavioral
and Social Research (BSR) has traditionally supported research on the
economics of aging that uses microeconomic approaches.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites research on the
macroeconomics of aging - the impact of population aging on the
macroeconomy and in turn how macroeconomic factors impact health and
well-being.
Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in this
competition, or in learning more about NIH propsals and grants
generally. We look forward to working with you.
