Funding Opportunities

The University of Rochester Aging Institute (URAI) solicits internal grant applications to support aging research projects with a focus on basic or clinical aging research topics. Pilot research that falls anywhere along the translational research continuum are welcome. Award levels vary up to $50,000 for one year, per award, dependent upon funding availability.

The goal of these pilot programs are to fund new, collaborative research studies that will support future applications for funding from NIA or other extramural sources. Collaborative projects that involve multiple PIs, as well as projects from investigators who have not previously worked in aging research are encouraged. Awards will be based on scientific merit, innovation and responsiveness to each research funding announcement. See information on our mission, vision & priorities. Announcements of funding opportunities will appear on this page.
