in Aging, 2025, Vol. 9, No. S2 451  \nAbstract citation ID: igaf122.1536  \nDEVELOPMENTAL TRAJECTORIES OF MIDUS: HISTORY AND EVOLVING DESIGN INNOVATIONS OF TEAM SCIENCE  \nDavid Almeida, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania, United States  \nThe Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) study has continuously evolved since its launch in 1995 with initial funding from The MacArthur Foundation. Originally designed to examine how psychosocial factors shape health and aging, MIDUS was groundbreaking in its inclusion of population-based daily diary studies, which provided novel insights into how everyday stressors accumulate to influence long-term well-being. With the first P01-funded expansion from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), MIDUS shifted beyond surveys to integrate biomarkers, cognitive testing, and affective neuroscience measures, marking a pivotal transition toward biopsychosocial integration. The addition of a diverse Milwaukee sample strengthened its generalizability, while new methodological innovations linked socioeconomic conditions to neurobiological health outcomes. In 2011, the MIDUS Refresher was introduced to address emerging societal challenges, such as the Great Recession, and to enhance statistical power for studying intersectional factors like race, gender, and socioeconomic status. More recently, the study has focused on maintaining sample representativeness by re-engaging past participants, a strategy that allows researchers to assess the long-term effects of early vulnerability markers on aging trajectories. As MIDUS moves into its next phase- the second and fourth waves of collection for the refresher and core samples, it continues to exemplify team science, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration to explore the complex interplay of daily experiences, social inequalities, and biological aging. By continuously adapting to new scientific priorities, MIDUS remains at the forefront of lifespan health research, providing a powerful model for studying adult development in a changing world.","cbCaiaggBBiCiCC3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaggBBiCiCC3","pdf",450996,"English","# Background and Evolution of MIDUS\n## From Psychosocial Focus to Biopsychosocial Integration\n## Study Expansions, Samples, and Methods\n## MIDUS Refresher and Intersectional Analyses\n## Future Phases and Team Science Approach","[{\"question\":\"What was MIDUS originally designed to study when it began in 1995?\",\"answer\":\"MIDUS was designed to examine how psychosocial factors shape health and aging, using population-based approaches to understand how everyday stress accumulates over time.\"},{\"question\":\"How did MIDUS change after the first NIA-funded expansion?\",\"answer\":\"After P01-funded expansion from the National Institute on Aging, MIDUS shifted beyond surveys by adding biomarkers, cognitive testing, and affective neuroscience measures to strengthen biopsychosocial integration.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the 2011 MIDUS Refresher?\",\"answer\":\"The MIDUS Refresher was introduced to address emerging societal challenges, including the Great Recession, and to enhance statistical power for studying intersectional factors such as race, gender, and socioeconomic status.\"}]","DEVELOPMENTAL TRAJECTORIES OF MIDUS - History and Evolving Design Innovations of Team Science | PDF",1790639898]
