FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR U-M MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH PROJECTS

• Understanding and addressing the changing perceptual, cognitive, and psychomotor abilities of older drivers to help them maintain safe driving

• Understanding and addressing the elevated crash risk of young drivers

Up to four projects will be funded, with a maximum award of $75,000 per project. The focus of the Center is multidisciplinary and all U-M departments/units are encouraged to explore funding opportunities through this offering.
