The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), in collaboration with the other NIH Institutes and Centers comprising the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research intend to publish a Request for Applications (RFA) soliciting applications that focus on Training in Neuroscience Imaging: Integrating First Principles and Applications. This RFA is expected to be published in November 2005. This funding opportunity will enable the development of novel, interdisciplinary training programs that integrate comprehensive training in basic neuroscience, the technologies of in vivo neuroscience imaging, and the application of these technologies to understanding questions in neuroscience across the lifespan. Applications in response to this RFA must include a predoctoral institutional research training program that provides: 1) integrated training in the technologies of in vivo imaging and their application; 2) training that spans multiple imaging modalities; and 3) training for graduate students from the quantitative, engineering and physical/chemical sciences, as well as from biomedical/biological disciplines. In addition, each training program must offer short term research education opportunities for scientists at all stages of the career continuum who are interested in neuroscience imaging.
