Clin-STAR Aging Research Development and Training Awards

The Clinician-Scientists Transdisciplinary Aging Research (Clin-STAR) Coordinating Center is seeking to fund aging research development and training awards that aim to prepare early career investigators for careers in aging-related research and stimulate new collaborations focused on the development of clinically relevant aging research projects.

This mechanism provides funding for up to four grants in 2025. Up to $50,000 in direct cost and up to 8% ($4,000) for indirect cost may be budgeted. Awards will be made to early-career clinician-scientists who work collaboratively with established (senior) investigator(s). A mentor with aging research expertise is required. This mentor can be at the same institution or another institution. Additional mentors are allowed. Clin-STAR Coordinating Center can assist with matches if needed.
