- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) provides $569,223 to examine the efficacy and tolerability of a ketone supplement drink (KS) in reducing alcohol craving and consumption among individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The award period runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2030. The key goals are to determine if KS can improve brain energetics and affect the pharmacokinetic...
- This federal Project Grant award of $396,643 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) supports research to elucidate the mechanisms underlying stress-potentiated ethanol drinking. The project aims to investigate the role of the histone methyltransferase G9a and its effects on dynorphin-positive neurons in the nucleus accumbens to regulate this behavior. Key objectives include testing the hypothesis that G9a's effects on...
- The Project Grant award of $657,156.00 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), supports research to examine the role of BK channels in alcohol-induced dysmyelination. The project aims to investigate the structural and functional correlates of myelin protein changes in a mouse model of alcohol use disorder, focusing on the effects of alcohol on oligodendrogenesis and pre-existing myelin. Key objectives include using...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), supports research to investigate the effects of chronic intermittent alcohol exposure on orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) astrocyte physiology, structure, and gene expression, and how these changes contribute to altered OFC neuron excitability and excessive drinking behaviors. The $459,707 award, with a period of performance from September 5,...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) provides $3,168,729 to New York University to conduct a collaborative research project titled "A Translational Approach for Novel Precision Medicine Models." The project aims to identify novel molecular targets and mechanisms of treatment responses in alcohol use disorder (AUD) based on the role of mitochondrial metabolism and epigenetic...
- This federal Project Grant award for $700,000.00, issued by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under CFDA 93.859 Biomedical Research and Research Training program, supports research to investigate the neurophysiological and genetic factors contributing to binge drinking and alcohol use disorder. The primary awardee, the University of New Mexico (UNM) Health Sciences Center, will leverage techniques such as monosynaptic circuit labeling, optogenetics, electrophysiology,...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $550,417 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports research to investigate how heavy alcohol exposure in aging individuals leads to impaired microglia function, neurodegeneration, and cognitive deficits. The study aims to determine whether dysregulated neuroimmune and microglia responses are...
- This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), will support research on the role of somatostatin in the central amygdala in relation to heavy alcohol drinking. The research team at Boston University Medical Campus will use an animal model of heavy alcohol drinking, combined with pharmacological, molecular, and electrophysiological approaches, to test the hypothesis that activation of...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, is focused on investigating the mechanisms through which alcohol and chronic drinking affect the function of vasoactive intestinal peptide-expressing inhibitory interneurons (VIP-INs) in the prefrontal cortex. The $459,343 award, effective from September 20, 2025 to July 31, 2030, aims to better define how alcohol modulates...
- This federal Project Grant award of $148,842.00 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) is for a research project investigating the relationship between social media use, exposure to alcohol-related content, and drinking behavior in young adults. The key objectives are to: (1) gain an in-depth understanding of young adults' perceptions of the factors influencing the associations between social media use,...
