Description

-The purpose of this funding opportunity is to encourage collaboration between alcohol researchers in the extramural community and those within the NIAAA intramural research program.The objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to bring together the research expertise that, as a functioning collaborative unit, will address key alcohol-based research questions that would not otherwise be possible by the same individuals working towards similar goals in isolation.The goal of the research proposed by the collaborating investigators should address questions that advance the alcohol research field with respect to issues surrounding alcohol use disorders including dependence, and the effects of alcohol on health. -NIAAA intends to commit a total of $1.0 M for this funding opportunity and expects to make 3-5 awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. -The NIH U01 cooperative agreement award mechanism will be used.The NIH Intramural Scientist will be a tenured or tenure-track scientist from the NIAAA Intramural division, with whom the PI has made prior contact for the collaborative project.
