This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for Roybal Centers for Translational Behavioral Research on Dementia Care, Caregiver Support, and Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). The Roybal Centers for Translational Behavioral Research on Dementia Care, Caregiver Support, and Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) have been established to serve as incubators for the development of behavioral interventions that improve the health, well-being, and/or capacity of persons living with dementia (PLWD) and individuals and/or systems that provide care to persons with AD/ADRD, as well as to develop behavioral interventions to help prevent or delay cognitive decline and AD/ADRD. For the purposes of this FOA, “behavioral" is defined broadly, including interventions that target behavioral, psychological, interpersonal, or social processes. Behavioral interventions may be designed for use at the individual, family, dyad, group, community, institutional, or health systems level. Roybal Centers must conduct clinical trials in accordance with the NIH Stage Model to produce potent and implementable behavioral interventions for mid-life and older adults that can be defined by their governing principles.
