This Avenir Award Program grant supports early stage investigators (ESIs) conducting highly innovative research at the nexus of substance abuse and HIV/AIDS. The core purpose is to fund creative individuals developing basic and clinical approaches benefiting substance-using populations with or at risk for HIV/AIDS. A clear aim is to reduce HIV incidence, improve therapies, mitigate comorbid conditions, and ultimately advance HIV eradication. Proposals must explicitly describe the drug abuse connection. This future-oriented program fosters studies aligned with NIH HIV/AIDS Research Priorities, driving breakthroughs in this critical field.
