Grant Description

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) are interested in receiving applications to supplement new investigators who have, or have a commitment of support to conduct research in basic or clinical alcohol or drug abuse research from funding sources other than NIH (e.g. private foundation). In addition, those applicants currently supported to conduct research on psychiatric disorders that are often found to be co-morbid with substance abuse, are also eligible to apply to SOAR for the purpose of adding a substance or alcohol abuse research component to their on-going research. It is hoped that the SOAR program will facilitate ongoing supported substance abuse and co-morbidity research among entry-level new investigators. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is intended to support new investigators on-going basic or clinical alcohol, drug abuse and/or related co-morbidity research. The primary goal of this Support Opportunity for Addiction Research (SOAR) is for new investigators to leverage existing research programs in order to strengthen, possibly expand, and/or further develop alcohol, drug abuse, and co-morbidity research.
