Newsletter - Insight on Aging

Sponsors:
UAB Center for Aging

Purpose:
The purpose of the newsletter is to communicate information about activities and accomplishments of Center for Aging (CFA) faculty and enhance the visibility of the CFA locally and nationally. The focus of the newsletter has been on research activities, including newly funded grants, updates on ongoing research projects, and the Center for Aging Intramural Grant program. It also serves as a venue for promoting the Center’s educational programs such as the Clinical and Behavioral Training program in Gerontology and the Scientific Seminar Series, as well as the service programs including the Alzheimer Family Program and New Horizons.

Services:
The newsletter is published two times per year and distributed to over 3500 individuals and organizations with interest in aging and programs for older adults. These include national and regional funding agencies, service agencies, centers on aging, leaders in gerontology and geriatric medicine, legislators, and other government officials.

Opportunities for Faculty Involvement:
The CFA newsletter provides an opportunity for CFA members to have their work highlighted and disseminated to the gerontology community.
