Grant Opportunities
A major initiative of the CCDA is to aid in the development of new studies either by providing pilot grants to investigators studying chronic diseases/disorders in the aging process or creating collaboration between CCDA members. The goals of this initiative are to: (1) increase research within the CCDA and Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine; (2) increase scholarly activity within the PCOM community; (3) establish preliminary studies for large grant applications to organizations such as the NIH and NSF; and (4) provide recognition of the existence of the CCDA as a unique entity supporting basic and applied research into healthy aging and major chronic problems of the 21st century.
