Functional Genetics, Epigenetics, and Non-coding RNAs in Drug Addiction (R03)
Purpose.
Genetic and genomic studies have identified genes and gene variants that potentially modulate the fundamental biological mechanisms underpinning addictive processes.
Discovery of these genes/variants, while extremely valuable, is only a first step in understanding molecular mechanisms of addiction.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement encourages basic functional genomic research in two areas:
1. functional validation to determine which candidate genes/variants/epigenetic/non-coding RNA features have an authentic role in addictive processes, and 2. detailed elucidation of the molecular pathways and processes modulated by candidate genes/variants, particularly for those genes with an unanticipated role in addiction.
The R03 grant mechanism supports different types of projects including pilot and feasibility studies; secondary analysis of existing data; small, self-contained research projects; development of research methodology; and development of new research technology.
The R03 is intended to support small research projects that can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources.
Mechanism of Support.
This FOA will utilize the NIH Small Research Grant (R03) award mechanism and runs in parallel with FOAs of identical scientific scope, PA-11-033, that encourages applications under the R01 mechanism and PA-11-034 that encourages applications under the R21 mechanism.
