The National Institute on Drug Abuse, with other NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs) the National Cancer Institute and The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, intend to reissue a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit applications for research proposing the innovative analysis of existing social science, behavioral, administrative, and neuroimaging data to study the etiology and epidemiology of drug using behaviors (defined as alcohol, tobacco, prescription and other drug) and related disorders, prevention of drug use and HIV, and health service utilization.
