National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism: Alcohol-Induced Immune Impairment Research Grant (R01)

This department is offering the Alcohol-Induced Immune Impairment Research Grant (R01) to investigate the impact of alcohol on immune function and its role in alcohol-related infections and organ damage. Research proposals should focus on understanding the immune alterations caused by alcohol, establishing connections between immune dysfunction and alcohol-related medical issues, and developing strategies to alleviate alcohol-induced pathology. The goal is to address the underlying mechanisms of immune impairment due to alcohol consumption and mitigate its negative effects on overall health and well-being.

Additional Information

Agency Name::	National Institutes of Health
Description::	Susceptibility to infection and organ damage are the two most common causes of alcohol-related morbidity and mortality. These consequences of alcohol abuse are closely associated with profound impairment of the host innate and adaptive immune systems. The mechanisms of these immune alterations and their link with alcohol-related medical problems are, in most cases, poorly understood. The goal of this FOA is to attract applications on basic and translational research: 1) to identify how alcohol alters immune function; 2) to establish functional links between immune alterations and alcohol related infections and organ damage; and 3) to develop means for mitigating immune impairment with the goal of alleviating alcohol-induced pathology.
