Hello,

My name is Beatriz Pandolfi, and I am a Program Specialist for the National Academy of Medicine (NAM)'s Healthy Longevity Global Competition<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/nam.edu/initiatives/grand-challenge-healthy-longevity/u-s-nam-catalyst-award-competition-round-2-2021/__;!!PhOWcWs!xbcV_dqDNU8Ueut-6vj0N3AaHOa_gAWnEKmlAwIPygS9Uc5EStQI1-0Bwr0UlPcpVyLwYjsnh7l5vmfgGRfilISHOI8E$>, which aims to accelerate research, innovation, and entrepreneurism by seeking innovative ideas from any discipline or sector. This is a unique opportunity that only requires a 2-page narrative submission. In 2023, up to 20 awardees will receive a $50,000 award, unlock exclusive access to future funding opportunities, and become part of a global interdisciplinary network!

Under the Global Competition, the NAM is accepting applications for the U.S.-based Catalyst Awards. The application period opens January 23, 2023 and closes February 27, 2023, at 11:59 pm EST. Individuals and teams may learn more<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/nam.edu/Catalyst-Award-Guidelines__;!!PhOWcWs!xbcV_dqDNU8Ueut-6vj0N3AaHOa_gAWnEKmlAwIPygS9Uc5EStQI1-0Bwr0UlPcpVyLwYjsnh7l5vmfgGRfilG3bQbtG$> and apply here.<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/namcatalystawards.smapply.io/__;!!PhOWcWs!xbcV_dqDNU8Ueut-6vj0N3AaHOa_gAWnEKmlAwIPygS9Uc5EStQI1-0Bwr0UlPcpVyLwYjsnh7l5vmfgGRfilMcR3yHL$>

I'm reaching out to provide more information about these awards and provide resources that allow you to share this opportunity with your networks. You can find our digital toolkit that includes draft social copy and graphics for easy use here: https://healthylongevitychallenge.org/nam-healthy-longevity-catalyst-awards-digital-toolkit/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/healthylongevitychallenge.org/nam-healthy-longevity-catalyst-awards-digital-toolkit/__;!!PhOWcWs!xbcV_dqDNU8Ueut-6vj0N3AaHOa_gAWnEKmlAwIPygS9Uc5EStQI1-0Bwr0UlPcpVyLwYjsnh7l5vmfgGRfilFw19TPO$>

More information about the Catalyst Award and Global Competition can be found below. Please feel free to modify or adjust this copy for promotional uses:

The NAM Healthy Longevity Catalyst Award offers $50,000 USD to individuals or teams with bold, new, and potentially transformative ideas that aim to improve the physical, mental, or social well-being and health of people as they age in a measurable and equitable way. Prizewinners can use the funding to actualize their ideas, which can focus on any stage of life, as long as they ultimately promote health as people age.
High-risk ideas that could potentially yield high rewards and, in turn, dramatically change the field of healthy longevity are encouraged. Applications may also originate from any field or combination of fields (e.g., biology, chemistry, medicine, engineering, behavioral and social sciences, technology, data science, and policy).
In addition to the winners, all Catalyst Award applicants advancing to the final stages of the review process will automatically be considered for additional funding as part of subsequent phase of the Global Competition, the Accelerator Phase, with awards from $150,000 to more than $1 million USD. Awardees from both phases will be well-positioned to compete in 2025 for the NAM's Grand Prize, worth up to $5M, for a breakthrough innovation in healthy longevity.

I'd be happy to share additional background or communications materials if you are interested in sharing this opportunity with your network to transform the future of aging.

Many thanks for your time,

Beatriz
