IMPACT Collaboratory Health Care Systems Scholars Program
NIA IMPACT Collaboratory (Hebrew SeniorLife / Brown University)
A one-year mentored immersion placing mid-career investigators inside a health care system to build durable partnerships, learn the system's workflows and priorities, and lay groundwork for future embedded pragmatic trials in dementia care. It funds relationship and capacity building rather than a discrete study, which is unusual and well matched to social work's practice-partnership tradition.
