Central and Peripheral Control of Balance in Older Adults (R01 Clinical Trial Optional): This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invitesapplications that propose basic and/or clinical studies to investigate central and peripheral control of balance in older adults and/or in relevant animal models. This FOA is driven by the need to address a major gap in our understanding of how aging impacts the vestibular system, which when impaired contributes to balance problems and an increased risk of falls in older adults. Additionally, given that balance impairment can be attributed to a number of factors (e.g. sensory, motor, cognitive, psychological,and vascular function), understanding the contribution of age-related vestibular loss, and how this interacts with these factors, is critical for informing interventions and treatments for balance problems and falls in older adults.
