Project Grant P60AA032189
- 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...
- The Southeast Translational Alcohol and HIV Research (STAHR) Center was awarded a $1,785,057 Project Grant by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) to conduct three inter-related clinical trials and observational studies focused on reducing alcohol consumption and mitigating alcohol's harmful effects on cardiovascular disease risk among people living with HIV. The key objectives are to: 1) examine the association between alcohol, gut...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $105,132 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Kentucky Research Foundation. The grant, titled "Uncovering the Functional and Mechanistic Dysregulation of Monocytes After Abstinence and Post-Abstinence Drinking," will leverage a rhesus macaque model to investigate the persistent functional, transcriptional, and epigenetic changes in peripheral monocytes induced by...
- The University of California Irvine was awarded a $412,125 Project Grant from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The grant funds a research project to comprehensively determine how alcohol consumption alters the metabolism of critical organs, which can contribute to alcohol-induced organ damage. The project will employ arteriovenous metabolomics to quantitatively measure the dynamic metabolic...
- 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...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, awarded a $150,526 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the Board of Regents of the Nevada System of Higher Education, doing business as the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). The project aims to assess the prevalence and theoretical drivers of novel high-intensity drinking behaviors, such as "BORG" (blackout rage gallon) drinking,...
- This federal Project Grant award of $3,182,397.00 was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). The grant aims to characterize the role of host gut proteases, particularly cathepsin B, and the immune response in alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) in both a human cohort and a mouse model. The research seeks to determine how alcohol-mediated induction of...
- The Project Grant award "CENTERING HIV STIGMA IN CLINICAL CONVERSATIONS TO INCREASE ALCOHOL TREATMENT UPTAKE (CHAT)" is funded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273). The key objectives of this $179,959 award, with a project period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2030, are to: 1) characterize patient and provider perspectives on experiences of stigma and preferences for using patient-reported stigma...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $571,673 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC). The funding supports research to investigate the combined behavioral effects of opioids and alcohol, and the potential role of a genetic variant of the mu opioid receptor (OPRM1 A118G) in influencing individual vulnerability to opioid-alcohol use and abuse. The research project will use rhesus...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $399,048 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) to examine behavioral and electrophysiological cue reactivity in young adult binge drinkers. The study will compare responses to uni- and multisensory alcohol and neutral cues that vary in degree of realistic appearance, and explore the effects of multisensory congruence on cue responses. The project...
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $1,593,618 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to establish the Center for Alcohol/HIV Innovations and Biomarker Research (CALIBER) at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). The goal of CALIBER is to (1) reduce the harmful effects of alcohol use on HIV prevention and HIV-associated comorbidities, (2) advance innovations in alcohol measurement, and (3) train the next generation of alcohol/HIV investigators. The grant will support three research projects, including developing and piloting a motivational interviewing-based intervention that incorporates biomarker feedback to reduce alcohol use and increase uptake of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis among high-risk couples. This comprehensive program of research, training, and dissemination aims to leverage UCSF's expertise in alcohol/HIV biomarker, behavioral, and translational research in partnership with affected communities.
