Purpose

The National Institute on Drug Abuse is seeking new ideas on how to leverage specialized knowledge, methods, and tools from other disciplines to inform new directions in drug use and addiction research. NIDA aims to gain insights into new methods or approaches that could transform discovery in order to expand our basic understanding of drug use and addiction processes, accelerate the development of novel and more effective prevention and treatment strategies, and/or enhance our capacity to implement and improve upon evidence-based interventions. NIDA plans to award $25,000 in total prizes. Those with novel ideas in this area are encouraged to visit the http://nida.ideascale.com/ to learn more about the challenge, and about eligibility, registration, and submission requirements.
