This grant, offered as part of the trans-NIH Collaborative Research on Addiction (CRAN) initiative, aims to fund research exploring social media’s role in substance use and addiction. Specifically, this funding is for projects investigating how social media influences risk behaviors related to alcohol, tobacco, and other drug (ATOD) use and abuse, or how it can be utilized to improve these conditions. Research proposals should focus on one of two key areas: employing social media interactions as surveillance tools to understand ATOD epidemiology, risk factors, attitudes, and behaviors; or developing and evaluating social media-based interventions for ATOD screening, prevention, and treatment, assessing their reach, engagement, and health impact. This grant supports innovative approaches to leverage digital platforms in addressing public health challenges posed by addiction.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is part of a trans-NIH initiative known as Collaborative Research on Addiction (CRAN). The goal of this FOA is to inspire and support research projects investigating the role of social media in risk behaviors associated with the use and abuse of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs (hereafter referred to as “ATOD”) and projects using social media to ameliorate such behaviors. Each research project proposed in response to this FOA must be focused on one of the two distinct areas: 1) observational research using social media interactions as surveillance tools to aid in the understanding of the epidemiology, risk factors, attitudes, and behaviors associated with ATOD use and addiction, or 2) intervention research measuring the reach, engagement, and behavioral and health impact of social media-based interventions for the screening, prevention, and treatment of ATOD use and addiction. |
