The National Institute on Drug Abuse invites applications for its neuroscience research on drug abuse (R01). The funding opportunity is to support exploration of the neurobiological mechanisms underlying drug abuse, and addiction, with emphasis on changes that occur during chronic drug use, withdrawal and relapse.
Opportunity
Applicants are especially encouraged to include appropriate behavioral models and paradigms of behavioral components or stages of addiction in their research proposals, especially in response to chronic exposure to drugs, different drug administration regimens, withdrawal, or recovery. The subject of study can be at the level of a single protein or gene, neurobiological system, or the entire organism. Research may be conducted across multiple levels of analysis, and applications that incorporate changes over time and/or across multiple scales (e.g., gene to behavior, abuse to dependence, adolescence to adulthood) are sought. Multi- and inter-disciplinary studies are especially encouraged.
This opportunity is recurring every February, June and October of every year until January 8, 2020.
