Description

The National Institutes of Health plans to renew the NIAAA Integrative Neuroscience Initiative on Alcoholism (INIA) to support two collaborative research consortia studying brain-body homeostatic dysregulation related to excessive alcohol drinking and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The initiative encourages hypothesis-centered research on alcohol interactions and focuses on trajectories from initial exposure to pathological drinking to identify markers and mechanisms for prevention and intervention. It promotes innovation by adapting advanced tools and technologies to examine brain structure and function at multiple scales and emphasizes rigor and reproducibility through standardization and replication across consortia. The renewal will support two multisite consortia through cooperative agreements, each with administrative and resource cores and individual research projects.
