This grant, the Research Center of Excellence Grant (P50), is for supporting innovative, multidisciplinary research centers focused on drug abuse and addiction within NIDA’s mission. The program seeks to fund centers that demonstrate outstanding, synergistic science, aiming to transform knowledge rather than incremental work. Awarded centers are expected to serve as national resources, conducting educational and outreach activities for researchers, educators, and the public. A key component involves the education, training, and mentoring of new investigators, providing them meaningful roles. Furthermore, these NIDA-supported centers must share their findings, data, and resources, thereby serving as vital national research assets in the field. The P50 mechanism necessitates a robust Center structure essential for achieving research goals.

| Description: | Purpose. This FOA is to provide support for research Centers that conduct drug abuse and addiction research in any area of NIDAs mission, that have outstanding innovative science, that are multidisciplinary, thematically integrated, synergistic, and that serve as national resource(s) to provide educational and outreach activities to drug abuse research communities, educational organizations, the general public, and policy makers in the NIDA research fields. It is expected that a Center will transform knowledge in the sciences it is studying. Incremental work should not be the focus of Center activities; rather, new and creative directions are required. The P50 Center of Excellence is expected to support the education, training, and mentoring of new investigators who would be given meaningful roles to play in the Center projects. NIDA Centers are expected to share their findings, their data and their resources, and to serve as national research resources in the drug abuse research field. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the Research Center of Excellence Grant (P50) mechanism. There should be evidence that the presence of a Center structure is essential for the accomplishment of the research activities. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. |
