Grant Description

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) seeks applications for cross-national and international multidisciplinary research on the intersection of alcohol consumption and the HIV epidemic. Investigators representing a broad array of academic disciplines and engaged in cross-cutting fields of science are encouraged to consider designing studies that utilize rigorous methodologies from epidemiological, biomedical, and behavioral research traditions. Special emphasis areas include: the prevention and treatment of HIV and other blood-borne infections in sexually active populations of alcohol users; the clinical course and consequences of HIV and related health conditions as these are affected by alcohol use; adherence to HIV/AIDS therapy and medication regimes as these are affected by alcohol use; the causes and consequences of differences in HIV-associated risks, morbidity, and mortality between men and women, adults and adolescents, and majority and minority populations who consume alcohol at various levels; the effectiveness of alcohol treatment as a means of lowering the risk that currently infected individuals will spread the HIV virus to others; and the design, development, and evaluation of prevention interventions to reduce the impact of alcohol use and sex-related risk behaviors on the primary and secondary transmission of HIV and other infectious diseases. Researchers are encouraged to utilize integrative, multi-method approaches in their study designs. Examples of newer technologies that may be employed include, but are not limited to, automated techniques for monitoring medications adherence, computer assisted survey administration, geospatial coding of alcohol-related events, econometric methods of assessing cost- effectiveness and burden of illness, and creative use of existing data resources to improve medical informatics. Other applications may focus on low cost, low technology, but clinically effective methods for improving the delivery of prevention or medical care, thereby enhancing the availability of these services to low income patients and the exportability of these services these improvements to resource-poor societies. Established researchers are urged to recruit new, domestic and foreign researchers to work on their projects, to provide training and mentoring to help achieve their project's specific aims, and to nurture the career development and independence of new researchers.
