The National Institute of Mental Health is offering a grant to accelerate drug and device discovery for mental disorders, substance use disorders, and alcohol addiction. The grant aims to develop tools for research and therapeutic studies, support early-stage human studies, and advance new candidate agents and neurostimulation approaches. Proposals should focus on preclinical development, proof of concept testing, and the validation of drug/device targets. Collaboration between academia and industry is encouraged. Application deadline: February 24, 2020.

Additional Information
| Agency Name: | National Institutes of Health |
| Description: | The purpose of this initiative is to: accelerate innovative drug and device discovery; develop pharmacologic and neuromodulatory tools for basic and clinical research on mental disorders, substance use disorders (SUDs) or alcohol addiction; develop and validate tools (pharmacologic or neurostimulation) in support of experimental therapeutic studies of innovative new candidates for mental disorders; and support early stage human studies to rapidly assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of promising drug candidates/devices and new indications for novel Investigational New Drug (IND)-ready agents or Pre-Market Approval (PMA)-ready devices for the treatment of mental disorders, SUDs or alcohol addiction. This FOA encourages applications to advance the discovery, preclinical development, and proof of concept (PoC) testing of new, rationally based candidate agents and neurostimulation approaches to treat mental disorders or SUDs or alcohol addiction, and to develop novel ligands and circuit-engagement devices as tools to further characterize existing or to validate new drug/device targets. Partnerships between academia and industry are strongly encouraged. |
