Description: Purpose. This FOA issued by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcohlism, National Institutes of Health, solicits grant applications from consortiums of researchers across different institutions that propose to 1) measure both short-term and long-term outcomes among HIV+ alcohol using, abusing, and dependent populations and 2) develop and strategically test interventions to reduce alcohol use and alcohol-related consequences in a coordinated way to prevent morbidity and mortality in the impacted population. In addition, this research seeks to develop a new framework for sustainable implementation research among HIV+ alcohol users with the goal of high impact on health care systems. This initiative is intended to build on existing cohorts of patients or HIV+ individuals in the process of being identified with new infections, entering, and/ or continuing treatment.

NIAAA intends to commit up to $ 4.5 million in total costs in FY2011 to fund up to two research consortium applications in response to this FOA. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
