Project Grant K99AA032540
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) provides $171,178 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to investigate the fundamental genetic and epigenetic mechanisms underlying the transgenerational effects of alcohol exposure. The overarching goal is to reveal how the "memory" of alcohol exposure is encoded and transmitted across generations in the nervous system. The research will leverage...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), awarded a $746,544 Project Grant to the University of Southern California (USC) to study the impact of personalized genetic and phenotypic feedback on early drinking behaviors among Asian American college students. This research builds upon prior NIAAA-funded studies conducted by USC, which demonstrated sustained effects on self-reported alcohol use and protective behaviors in...
- This Project Grant award in the amount of $117,939 was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273). The funding supports a research project titled "Exploring Risk and Resilience Factors in Families of Children with FASD: A Mixed Methods Approach" at San Diego State University Foundation. The project aims to 1) identify risk and protective factors at the family level that impact developmental outcomes for...
- This Project Grant award of $720,043 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) is funding a randomized clinical trial to examine the efficacy of the electronic alcohol intervention eCHECKUP TO GO combined with a brief parent-based intervention to reduce high school student drinking. The goal is to expand on prior research showing the promise of web-based personalized feedback interventions and brief parent-based interventions in...
- This Project Grant award, totaling $560,108.00 and spanning September 15, 2025 to August 31, 2030, was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The purpose of the project is to investigate the neurocognitive mechanisms that promote resilience to alcohol use disorder (AUD) in individuals with a family history of AUD. Specifically, the research will examine how attentional abilities may...
- This Project Grant award of $840,425.00 was provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health, under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The funding will support research examining the impact of pre- and postnatal substance exposure, maternal distress, and related parent-child interpersonal processes on the development of adolescent risk behaviors, including substance use and delinquency. The research will leverage a...
- 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,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), provides $146,100 to Texas A&M University System Health Science Center to investigate the effects of parental alcohol exposure and co-use of alcohol with cannabinoids on behavioral deficits and corticostriatal activity in rodent models. The key objectives are to: 1) Test the hypothesis that dual-parental alcohol exposure leads to greater impairments...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs, will fund a longitudinal study on alcohol consumption, contexts, and consequences across the transition to legal drinking age in the United States. The University of Missouri System will receive $719,749 to conduct this 5-year study, starting on September 10, 2025. The researchers will use ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to collect self-report,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) provides $248,999 to Virginia Commonwealth University to explore the genetic and neurocognitive mechanisms underlying the co-occurrence of alcohol use/problems and suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The overarching goal is to examine how aggregate genetic liability and decision-making processes may contribute to this co-occurrence. The 3-year project period runs from...
This $154,967 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) supports Dr. Chen in establishing an independent research career investigating developmental pathways to alcohol use and misuse in adolescence and early adulthood. The overarching goal is to understand how and why parental factors are associated with adolescent early alcohol initiation, with the aim of informing effective prevention programs that target specific parental behaviors. The research integrates family-based genetic designs and genomics to examine potential genetic, environmental, and direct parental influence mechanisms underlying these associations. The grant period runs from September 2025 through August 2027 and is being performed at the University of Colorado.
