Social Research Training on Applied Issues of Aging
Investigators: Ruth E. Dunkle, Berit Ingersoll-Dayton
Funding: National Institute on Aging
The Doctoral Program in Social Work and Social Science has been the recipient of grants from the National Institute on Aging since 1985 to provide training in applied issues in aging research to predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows. The overall objective of these grants has been to develop researchers who will contribute to the theoretical and empirical knowledge base for determining policies and programs that can enhance the well-being of aging individuals and the elderly. During the first 15 years of the project, 37 predoctoral and 35 postdoctoral fellows were supported by these grants. The current grant is funded through May 2011 with the capacity to support predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows annually.
