National Institutes of HealthCloses Feb 11, 2027(121 days left)

Does this fit your business?

This is an NIH research grant for scientists studying the genetics of substance use disorder in animal models, not a business grant. If your organization does not run genomics or animal-model research on addiction-related traits, do not bother applying. Clinical trials are not allowed, and the award amount is not published.

Best for
Universities and academic research labs running animal-model genomics studies, Nonprofit research institutes, Small biotech or genomics businesses doing addiction-related research, State, local, or tribal government research programs
Not for
Businesses looking for operating capital or commercial funding, Organizations wanting to run clinical trials, Applicants without genomics or animal-model research capability

Eligible applicants include private and public institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, small businesses, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, state, county, city, and special district governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities, and Native American tribal governments and organizations. The eligibility text also lists foreign (non-U.S.) entities, federal agencies, and various minority-serving institutions such as HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions.
Can a sole proprietor or single-member LLC apply?
The facts do not say. Small businesses are eligible, but the notice does not specify whether sole proprietors or single-member LLCs qualify, so check the full solicitation (PAR-24-269) before assuming you can apply.
Can a nonprofit apply?
Yes. Nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education) are both listed as eligible applicants.

Summary

NIH/NIDA research grants (U01) to identify genetic, genomic, and epigenetic variants underlying substance use disorder phenotypes and behaviors in animal models. Eligible applicants include universities, nonprofits, small businesses, for-profits, state/local/tribal governments, and foreign entities; clinical trials not allowed.

About this grant

The purpose of the NIDA Animal Genetics Program is to identify genetic, genomic, and molecular (epi)genetic variants that underlie: 1. Phenotypes associated with addictive behaviors and/or vulnerability to distinct stages along the substance use disorders (SUD) trajectory (e.g. initial/acute use, escalation of use, acquisition of tolerance, dependence, uncontrolled use, abstinence and relapse or recovery); 2. Behaviors associated with SUD (e.g. impulsivity, novelty seeking, delayed discounting, and other genetically-associated phenotypes); and 3. Comorbidities that demonstrate genetic correlations with phenotypes and behaviors linked with SUD (e.g. anxiety, stress, poor maternal care, social defeat, and other paradigms). Applications may examine any type of genomic variant, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), indels, large and small structural variants, and all types of mobile DNA. NIDA encourages applications that take genomics, multi-omics, and/or data-based approaches that integrate multi-level omics data, delineate gene networks, and/or uncover the function of known or newly discovered genetic or epigenetic variants. Other areas of interest include genomics analysis at the circuit level and the application of neuroscience to genomics studies. NIDA expects these studies to uncover novel mechanisms that contribute to various stages across the SUD trajectory and inform future studies about potential targets and therapeutic strategies for addiction.

Who can apply

Other Eligible Applicants include the following:

Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions; Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs); Eligible Agencies of the Federal Government; Faith-based or Community-based Organizations; Hispanic-serving Institutions; Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); Indian/Native American Tribal Governments (Other than Federally Recognized); Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations); Regional Organizations; Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs) ; U.S. Territory or Possession.
