About this program

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) within the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health administers the Alcohol National Research Service Awards for Research Training (CFDA 93.272), which funds predoctoral and postdoctoral fellowships and training grants in alcohol research; the most recent grant award on file is dated March 9, 2011.

This program has not disbursed new awards in over 15 years. The award cadence declined sharply after 2009, dropping from 30 awards in 2009 to 3 in 2010 and 1 in 2011. The program's funding history extends to 1987, with a total of 637 awards across its lifetime.

NIAAA funds research training across basic biological mechanisms of alcohol's effects on the central and peripheral nervous systems, behavioral and clinical research on alcohol use disorders and treatment, prevention research including college drinking interventions and prenatal exposure consequences, and epidemiologic studies on alcohol-related health disparities. Recent awards document training in neurobiological mechanisms (ethanol effects on ion channels and neurotransmitter systems), liver disease pathogenesis, adolescent brain development and drinking trajectories, and clinical intervention design. Representative recent awards include Project Grant F32AA020143 for effects of antipsychotics on alcohol-related responding ($47,606), Project Grant F31AA017565 for brief intervention in mandated college drinkers ($33,731), and Project Grant F32AA019851 investigating an alcohol-sensitive site on the GABAA receptor ($50,474).

The program distributes predominantly Project Grants (92 percent of awards, 589 total) with a smaller share of Block Grants (8 percent, 48 awards). NIAAA is the sole funding agency. Combined federal dollars obligated across all 637 awards total $55.6 million, with individual award values ranging from approximately $10 thousand to $151 thousand in the recent cohort.

No current grant opportunities are listed in the source. The absence of awards after 2011 and lack of posted solicitations suggest this program is not currently accepting applications.
