U.S. centers and institutes for research and education devoted to aging are listed. These lists can serve as a starting point for building a more comprehensive reference resource. The first list, U.S. Aging Centers and Institutes, is a general guide to centers or institutes that combine research and education. Subsequent lists are of centers that share missions and funding sources: Geriatric Research, Education and Clinical Centers (GRECCs); Exploratory Centers for Research on Health Promotion in Older Minority Populations; Centers on the Demography of Aging (CDAs); Alzheimer's Disease Centers (ADCs); Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Centers (OAICs); Nathan Shock Centers of Excellence in Basic Biology of Aging; and Roybal Centers for Research on Applied Gerontology. It is hoped that those who work in geriatrics and gerontology in academic medicine will develop a comprehensive system for collecting, updating, and disseminating complete information about the work being done on aging.
列出了美国致力于老龄化研究与教育的中心和机构。这些列表可作为构建更全面参考资源的起点。第一个列表“美国老龄化中心和机构”是对结合研究与教育的中心或机构的总体指南。后续列表是具有共同使命和资金来源的中心：老年医学研究、教育和临床中心（GRECCs）；老年少数族裔健康促进研究探索中心；老龄化人口统计学中心（CDAs）；阿尔茨海默病中心（ADCs）；克劳德·D·佩珀美国老年人独立中心（OAICs）；内森·肖克衰老基础生物学卓越中心；以及罗伊巴尔应用老年医学研究中心。希望从事学术医学领域老年医学和老年学工作的人员能开发出一个全面的系统，用于收集、更新和传播有关老龄化研究工作的完整信息。
