International Research Collaboration on Drug Addiction - NIDA
|
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) invites applications for international collaborative research on drug abuse and drug addiction.
While NIDA has supported research and research training targeting drug abuse in other countries in the past, given the increasing prevalence of drug abuse and addiction and its public health consequences, particularly the spread of HIV/AIDS around the world, NIDA is significantly expanding its support of international research on these issues. New research will build knowledge for evidence-based strategies to reduce demand for illicit drugs in the United States and around the world; and enhance collaborative research to take advantage of unique populations and resources to improve our basic understanding of addiction, and its prevention and treatment.
This program will provide funding for projects conducted in whole or in part outside the United States. The research must be conducted by U.S. investigators in collaboration with non-U.S.-based investigators. Either the U.S. or the non-U.S. investigator may serve as principal investigator, but the project must include significant contributions of resources by each participant. Resources may include "in kind" contributions of personnel, access to study populations, laboratory, and other research facilities, etc., as well as funding. This is a broad call for innovative research, and applications are encouraged in all areas of science addressing drug addiction. Of particular interest are projects that take advantage of a unique set of resources or subject populations.
Sponsor:Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS); National Institutes of Health (NIH) and National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).
Deadline:February 01, 2003; June 01, 2003 and October 01, 2003.
Eligibility:Applications may be submitted by domestic or foreign, for-profit or nonprofit organizations and public or private institutions, such as universities, colleges, hospitals, and laboratories; units of state and local governments; eligible agencies of the federal government; and faith-based or community-based organizations. The citizenship of the PI is unrestricted.
