Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA AG 21 009
The Artificial Intelligence and Technology Collaboratories for Aging Research (AITC) program is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity from the Department of Health and Human Services that supports the creation of national-scale collaboratories focused on applying artificial intelligence (AI) and related technologies to real-world aging and dementia challenges. Structured as a P30 center-type grant mechanism (with clinical trials allowed but not required), the program is meant to function as a shared, field-wide resource rather than a single-lab research project. In practical terms, an AITC award is intended to bring together multidisciplinary expertise, infrastructure, and partnerships so that promising AI and technology solutions can be developed, tested through demonstration projects, and moved toward implementation in ways that measurably improve care and health outcomes for older adults, including persons with dementia and the family members or other caregivers who support them.
A core theme of the opportunity is translation and impact: the AITC is designed to promote both the development and the implementation of AI approaches and technology, meaning applicants are expected to address not only algorithm and tool creation, but also adoption barriers in care settings and community contexts. The emphasis on demonstration projects signals that the program values applied, use-inspired work where technologies are tried in realistic environments to show feasibility, usefulness, and pathways to scale. Because persons with dementia and caregivers are explicitly included, the scope naturally extends beyond medical outcomes alone to include caregiver burden, safety, quality of life, care coordination, and supportive services that can improve day-to-day living and decision-making.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-AG-21-009) in the health funding category, listed under CFDA 93.866. The NIH anticipates making about two awards under this announcement, with an award ceiling of $2,500,000, indicating relatively large center-level budgets intended to support shared infrastructure, coordination, and multiple projects or cores. The opportunity was created on March 12, 2020, and had an original closing date of October 1, 2020.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations that could credibly host a national collaboratory. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and multiple levels of government (state, county, city/township, special district). It also includes Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations, as well as public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. This wide eligibility reflects the program’s collaborative intent and the reality that effective aging and dementia technology work often spans academia, healthcare delivery systems, community organizations, industry partners, and public-sector stakeholders.
Overall, the AITC program can be understood as NIH support for building a national hub (or a small number of hubs) that accelerates responsible, practical AI and technology innovation for aging, with a strong expectation that the work will be grounded in real care needs and designed to produce tangible improvements for older Americans, especially those living with dementia and the people who care for them.Apply for RFA AG 21 009
