a Funding Opportunity Announcement for the Consortium on the Neurobiology of Adolescent Drinking in Adulthood (NADIA) Administrative Resource (Collaborative U24 - Clinical Trials not allowed)

Overview

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for research on the Neurobiology of Adolescent Drinking in Adulthood (NADIA) consortium to elucidate mechanisms of persistent changes in brain-behavior relationships following adolescent alcohol exposure. The initiative supports research across various research institutions to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the effects of repeated adolescent alcohol exposure on brain maturation and adult outcomes. To establish a robust foundational knowledge base that can be utilized in developing enhanced treatment methods and more effective strategies for preventing alcohol and alcohol-related problems. NIAAA supports research across various fields, including biomedical and genetic factors, psychological and environmental influences, alcohol-related problems and medical conditions, health services research, and prevention and treatment strategies. Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO will utilize the U24 activity code. Investigators with expertise in molecular insights are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO. In addition, collaborative investigations combining expertise are encouraged, and these investigators should also begin considering applying for this application.
