CAPS awards 2 to 4 pilot grants each year to CAPS affiliates and their collaborators. The purpose of the pilot grant program is to:
- generate new lines of innovative, interdisciplinary, policy-relevant, and cross-institution research in CAPS signature and cross-cutting themes
- encourage innovative team science in the demography and economics of aging
- accelerate research and external funding success of CAPS affiliates
Each fall, CAPS affiliates receive a call for pilot proposals. Proposals are due in January.
Questions about the pilot program should be sent to CAPS@maxwell.syr.edu
