This five-year Mentored Career Development Award, funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $191,449 in total obligated funding to Yale University to support rigorous training and research in molecular neuroimaging. The award is designed to prepare the candidate for an independent academic research career utilizing Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging in individuals with severe compulsive and impulsive behaviors, specifically hoarding disorder. The training program encompasses three primary career development goals: intensive focused training in the neurobiology and pathology of compulsive behaviors with emphasis on hoarding disorder; comprehensive training in PET methodology and data acquisition; and advanced biostatistics training for integration of PET and behavioral data. Training activities will be conducted under expert oversight in neurobiology, molecular imaging, and psychiatry within Yale School of Medicine's academic environment. The proposed research component consists of an innovative PET study examining kappa opioid receptor (KOR) availability in individuals diagnosed with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) hoarding disorder. This investigation addresses a significant gap in understanding a devastating and understudied psychiatric condition characterized by severe compulsive difficulties with discarding and excessive acquisition that results in debilitating clutter and profound personal and public health consequences. The award period extends from June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2031, with integrated training in responsible conduct of research embedded throughout the program execution.
