Grant Description

Purpose: The NIDA Research Education Program will support research education and training for those in clinically focused careers. Participants (those receiving the research education and training) should be training for careers as clinical researchers, clinicians/service providers, or optimally, a combination of the two. This mechanism may not be used for support of non-research related clinical training. In addition, applicant organizations may only propose research education experiences at the following levels of professional career development: medical/graduate student, postdoctoral fellow, medical resident, and/or independent scientist. Research education and training activities may be in any topic area related to substance use/abuse/addiction; however, the following are examples of particular relevance to this FOA: etiology; clinical assessment and diagnostics; treatment; prevention; health services; clinical neuroscience; medical consequences of drug abuse; and pre-clinical research as it pertains to translational research. Interdisciplinary research education is encouraged and may include co-morbid conditions and consequences of drug use such as HIV/AIDS. Education partnerships and collaborations are also encouraged. Mechanism of Support: This FOA will use the NIH Research Education (R25) grant mechanism. Research education programs may not be transferred from one institution to another, unless strongly justified (see Section VI.2). Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research education program 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 mechanism, numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
