This $136,320 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) will support the development and delivery of an education intervention for addiction data science. The "Developing a Diverse Workforce: Advancing Data Science for Addiction Research and Professional Training (ADAPT)" project aims to build an addiction data science training program that expands the research capacity of diverse emerging investigators. The key products to be delivered include an immersive and tailored addiction data science skills course providing hands-on training in data principles, computational analytics, systems modeling, and linking addiction data sources. The project will also incorporate novel methods of program evaluation and dissemination, including leveraging natural language processing to capture participant outcomes. This initiative aligns with NIDA's mission to train a diverse workforce capable of performing high-quality addiction data science research.
