This grant is for encouraging comprehensive research into covalent RNA modifications within the challenging context of HIV/AIDS and co-occurring substance use disorders. Its primary purpose is to support ambitious projects focused on identifying specific modifications crucial for HIV function, alongside thoroughly elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms involved. Furthermore, a key objective is to understand how these intricate processes interact with chronic drug exposure, a common factor in this patient population. The ultimate goal of this funded research is to lay a vital scientific foundation for the future development of innovative and highly effective therapeutics, specifically designed to treat HIV in patients also affected by substance use disorders, thereby addressing a significant unmet medical need.

| Description: | The purpose of this FOA is to encourage research projects that investigate covalent RNA modifications in HIV/AIDS and substance use disorders. Identifying modifications involved in HIV function as well as understanding the mechanisms involved and how these processes interact with chronic drug exposure could lay the foundation for the development of future novel therapeutics to treat HIV in patients with SUDs. |
