Planning Projects for Clinical Trials on Effects of Sustained Reductions in Caloric Intake and Related Dietary Practices in Younger and Older Persons (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-AG-21-016 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications for 3-year planning projects for trials in either of two age ranges (25 to 50 or ? 50 years of age) to determine the effects of sustained (e.g. 5-year) caloric restriction (CR) and other interventions that modify the amount, timing, or composition of nutrient intake on risk factors for aging-related conditions and mechanisms that may influence health span and longevity. Proposed projects must plan for trials with a minimum of three arms: a control group, a CR group, and at least...

Expanding NIH ’s Definition of Socio-Economic Disadvantaged to be More Inclusive and Diversify the Workforce
An extensive literature demonstrates that socioeconomic status is one of the strongest predictors of health, on par with typical risk markers like smoking, physical inactivity, hypertension, and diabetes.  An intriguing graphic shows life expectancy according to stops on the London subway system – as described in a news story, “if you travel eastbound between Lancaster Gate and Mile End – 20 minutes on the Central line – life expectancy decreases by 12 years.”  This association of strong links between socioeconomic status and health is remarkably reproducible – including on subway maps of the ...
