Grant Description

-Purpose. The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to stimulate investigations (using animal models or human subjects) of neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms that underlie the effects of physical activity on brain function across the lifespan as well as research designed to improve the translation of existing knowledge of the effects of exercise and physical activity into strategies for the prevention and treatment of drug abuse.ÊThe proposed line of investigation may focus on any neurobiological, behavioral or cognitive process that has been demonstrated to be affected by drugs of abuse or behaviors related to drug abuse.ÊThe research may be conducted in healthy individuals or, if scientifically appropriate, may include substance-abusing populations.ÊAll applications, however, must address how the proposed investigations are relevant to the understanding and/or treatment of substance abuse or how they may be implemented in substance abusing populations.Ê -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize a modified R03 small research grant program, which can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. NIDA intends to commit $4 million dollars in FY2009 to fund 8 to 12 applications in response to this FOA and its companion R01 RFA-DA-09-013.
