The National Institutes of Health is offering a grant opportunity titled "New Approaches for Measuring Brain Changes Across Longer Timespans (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)". This grant aims to encourage multidisciplinary investigators to develop new approaches or apply existing approaches in novel ways to measure brain activity, connectivity, genomics, or other aspects across the age spectrum of neurodevelopment. The goal is to extend our understanding of brain development and aging, including studies of the neurodevelopmental origins of later health and disease. The research can include healthy human participants of any age, specific clinical groups, and/or animal research. The studies can focus on longitudinal neuroanatomical or functional changes at any level, including genetics/genomics, single cells, connectomics, neural population activity patterns, and others. The funding opportunity intends to encourage technological and conceptual innovation to improve repeated measures across longer epochs of the lifespan, to better predict outcomes at later ages.
