Congratulations to Pepper Scholar Huiwen Xu, PhD for selection into the RCCN Scholars Program in Multidisciplinary Research.

The goal of the National Institute on Aging’s Research Centers Collaborative Network (RCCN) is to bring together researchers from the 7 NIA Centers programs to foster the development of cross-center collaborations around issues important to the health and well-being of older adults. The RCCN Scholars program targets early-career faculty with an interest in multidisciplinary aging research. Scholars participate in a longitudinal mentoring and support program to build knowledge and confidence in pursuing a multidisciplinary research program. They also build connections among scholars to promote multidisciplinary collaboration.
