NIAAA-Funded Research Centers
Comprehensive Alcohol Research Centers (P60) and Specialized Alcohol Research Centers (P50)
NIAAA has released its Notice of Funding Opportunities for their Center Programs:
NIAAA has established a nationwide program of Alcohol Research Centers. The Alcohol Research Centers Program complements and is interrelated with all other research support mechanisms and scientific activities that investigate the causes, diagnosis, treatment, control, prevention, and consequences of alcohol use disorder and alcohol-related problems. The program provides long-term support (typically 5 years) for interdisciplinary research and encourages outstanding scientists from many disciplines to provide a full range of expertise, approaches, and advanced technologies.
A primary goal of each NIAAA-funded Center is to become, through excellence in scientific research, a significant regional or national research resource. Each Center affords research training opportunities for individuals from various disciplines and professions. Fostering diversity is a key component of the NIH strategy to identify, develop, support, elevate, and maintain the quality and pool of our scientific workforce. It is expected that the Alcohol Research Centers will seek to recruit a diverse pool of potential participants, including individuals from underrepresented groups as per NOT-OD-20-031 and NOT-OD-22-019, and have an active Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP). Current Alcohol Research Centers are listed below.
