Science Education Drug Abuse Partnership Award: - The purpose of the SEDAPA Program is to fund the development and evaluation of innovative model programs and materials for enhancing knowledge and understanding of neuroscience and the biology of drug abuse and addiction among K-12 students, the general public, health care practitioners, and other groups. The award provides support for the formation of partnerships between scientists and educators, media experts, community leaders, and other interested organizations for the development and evaluation of programs and materials that will enhance knowledge and understanding of science related to drug abuse. The intended focus is on topics not well addressed in existing efforts by educational, community, or media activities. - Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the number, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. - This funding opportunity will use the R25 mechanism. - Eligible organizations include domestic organizations with a scientific and/or educational mission, including colleges and universities, state and local education agencies, professional societies, museums, research laboratories, media producers, private foundations and industries, and other public and private education-related organizations, for-profit or non-profit. - Eligible principal investigators include scientists, educators, media experts, community leaders and others. - There is no limit on the number of different applications that may be submitted. Applicants must use the currently approved version of the PHS 398.
