This $1,838,237 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) supports research to understand how chronic stress affects the neural circuits responsible for habit formation. The research aims to uncover the opposing amygdala-striatal pathways that mediate the impact of chronic stress on transitioning from goal-directed to habitual behaviors. Using a multifaceted approach including optical neuronal activity...
This $242,310 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) on September 13, 2024. The grant supports research at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) to examine the role of GQ-coupled GPCR signaling in the rapid mobilization of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) by corticosterone in the prefrontal cortex. The research aims to enhance understanding of the mechanisms underlying...
The federal Project Grant award in the amount of $118,656 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) aims to investigate the influence of fear conditioning and cocaine exposure on cocaine-seeking behavior in adult rats. The project will assess the neurophysiological changes in the communication between the prelimbic cortex and nucleus accumbens core, which play critical roles in trauma-related disorders and substance use...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $157,568 to Drexel University to elucidate corticolimbic circuit and neuroimmune mechanisms underlying HIV-induced dysregulation of reward-seeking behavior. The research aims to use optogenetic and chemogenetic techniques to stimulate the infralimbic cortex-nucleus accumbens shell circuit and modulate microglial function to rescue HIV-induced...
This $121,323 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The project aims to investigate the structural and functional responses of nucleus accumbens microglia following long-access cocaine self-administration in male and female rats. The key products and services to be delivered include: Exploring the morphological responses of accumbens microglia and evidence of astrocyte membrane...
This $149,284 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs) to Vanderbilt University will fund research to understand how chronic cocaine use disrupts the neural processing of aversive, non-drug stimuli in the brain. The study aims to define the precise temporal parameters under which dopamine release modulates the activity of genetically-defined neuron populations in the nucleus accumbens, both at baseline and in...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $1,996,709.00 to the Trustees of Indiana University (Indiana University Indianapolis) to investigate the role of cortical excitatory projections in cocaine addiction. The 5-year project, which runs from September 30, 2024 to May 31, 2029, aims to examine the excitability of cortical pyramidal neurons in the supplementary motor cortex and...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), is focused on understanding the role of the "need-state" hypothesis in the development of cocaine addiction using an animal model. The $1,447,919 award, spanning May 2025 to February 2030, aims to: Test whether treatment with a GLP-1 receptor agonist can block the aversive conditioned response and subsequent cocaine seeking/taking...
This federal Project Grant award, identified as K99DA060930, was provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The $136,929 award will fund research to investigate the impact of chronic cocaine use on habitual behaviors and associated neural activity patterns in mice. The research will examine whether a history of cocaine self-administration alters dopamine release and neural activity in brain regions associated with...
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has awarded a $492,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs) to the University of Chicago to conduct a multidimensional study on the genetic and epigenetic factors underlying cocaine addiction. The 5-year project aims to: Perform high-resolution chromatin accessibility and DNA methylation profiling to delineate cell-type and circuit-specific epigenetic changes following cocaine self-administration in mice. This will...
