Description

This FOA aims to elucidate basic sleep and circadian mechanisms contributing to the risk of opiate use disorder (OUD), the pathobiology of opiate withdrawal, and that influence the response to medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Studies are needed to apply advances in understanding sleep and circadian biology to improving our understanding of OUD, the directionality of sleep and OUD interactions, and the opportunities to improve therapy and outcome. Multi-disciplinary, multiple-investigator teams combining expertise in sleep and circadian neurobiology with the neurobiology OUD and pharmacology of MAT are strongly encouraged. This FOA is only open to the study of OUD relevant mechanisms and pathobiology. The study of other drugs of abuse will not be responsive.
