Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA AG 19 008

The Edward R. Roybal Coordinating Center (R24 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed) funding opportunity (RFA-AG-19-008) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant run through the Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institute on Aging (NIA). The purpose is to fund one institution to operate a centralized Coordinating Center that functions as the operational and communications hub for two related NIA center programs: the Roybal Centers for Translational Research on Aging and the Roybal Centers for Translational Research on Dementia Care Provider Support. Rather than supporting a single research project, the Coordinating Center is designed to strengthen the overall Roybal network by connecting sites, aligning activities, and helping the programs operate as a coherent national effort.

At the core of the Roybal programs is translational research in the behavioral and social sciences of aging. The work is organized around the NIH Stage Model for behavioral intervention development, which lays out a pipeline from early concept and foundational work through increasingly mature testing and refinement. Roybal resources emphasize pilot and preliminary translational, multi-directional research spanning Stages 0 through IV. In practical terms, that focus supports the creation and early development of principle-driven interventions, meaning interventions grounded in clear mechanisms and theory, with the intent to improve quality of life for mid-life and older adults and to build the ability of institutions and systems to adapt to an aging society. This particular R24 Coordinating Center award is explicitly "Clinical Trial Not Allowed," signaling that the Coordinating Center itself is not meant to conduct or lead clinical trials; its role is coordination, infrastructure, and network support for translational activities across the Roybal sites.

The Coordinating Center is expected to facilitate and coordinate "trans-Roybal" activities, meaning activities that cut across the various Roybal Centers rather than staying within a single site. This includes helping to organize collaboration, enabling information-sharing, and supporting common approaches where useful across the network. A key part of the role is responsiveness: the Coordinating Center works closely with the NIA Program Officer and, in coordination with all Roybal sites, responds to requests and needs that may come from Roybal site leaders, NIA and NIH leadership, the broader scientific community, and even the general public. In effect, it serves as the connective tissue between multiple center programs and stakeholders, helping ensure that lessons, tools, methods, and program activities are shared efficiently and that the network presents a coordinated presence.

The opportunity is broad in terms of who can apply. Eligibility includes many types of organizations: public and private institutions of higher education, federal recognized tribal governments and tribal organizations, state and local governments, public housing authorities, nonprofits (with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and other entities as described in the announcement. The funding instrument is a grant under the health funding activity category, associated with CFDA number 93.866. The opportunity was created on June 7, 2018, with an original closing date of October 18, 2018. NIA anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling listed at $200,000, which reflects the Coordinating Center structure: a relatively modest, centralized budget intended to support coordination functions for an established multi-site program rather than to fund large-scale primary research.

Overall, the grant is best understood as an infrastructure and leadership award for an organization capable of managing network-level coordination in aging-related behavioral and social science translation. The Coordinating Center is meant to improve the effectiveness of the Roybal Center programs by organizing cross-site activities, supporting communication and responsiveness to stakeholder needs, and helping the Roybal network advance interventions through early-to-mid stages of development in ways that can ultimately improve outcomes for older adults, caregivers, and the systems that serve them.
