2010 Call for Proposals

Graduate Student and Faculty Awards 

for 

The Pearl J. Aldrich Endowment in 

Aging-Related Research

Supporting research, education, and service activities in gerontology-related programs at Michigan State University

The Pearl J. Aldrich Endowment in Gerontology was created through an estate gift established by Pearl Aldrich, Ph.D., who passed away in 1997.  Dr. Aldrich was a long-standing faculty member who devoted nearly 36 years to MSU’s Department of Family Ecology before retiring in 1978.  During her lifetime, Dr. Aldrich was especially committed to encouraging interdisciplinary approaches to discovering new knowledge in the field of gerontology and/or applying such knowledge to improve the lives of older adults.
