Description: The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) seeks to facilitate the entry of new/early stage investigators (ESIs) into substance use disorder (SUD) research. ESIs are invited to submit applications for small scale, innovative chemical/pharmacological pilot research projects. Importantly, the C/START award is intended to enable an ESI the opportunity to gather preliminary data in support of subsequent research grants (e.g., R21/R33 [CHEM], R21 or R01) or drug development funding opportunities that, in the long term, help to launch the ESIs scientific career.
