The Program Announcement "Minority Access to Research Careers Program

(MARC)" was published by the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health

Administration (ADAMHA) in 1987 and has been supported by the three

former ADAMHA institutes, the National Institute of Mental Health

(NIMH), the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism

(NIAAA), and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).  The MARC

program at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has been

administered primarily by the National Institute of General Medical

Sciences (NIGMS) and the other NIH institutes have provided funding

for some aspects of selected MARC grants.



The merger of the ADAMHA institutes with the NIH has led to a

reorganization of the former ADAMHA MARC Program.  The NIMH will

continue and further develop this program in the area of mental

health.  The name of this program has been changed to "Career

Opportunities in Research Education and Training (COR)."  The NIDA

and NIAAA will honor commitments for continuation of awards made

under the former ADAMHA MARC, but will no longer accept assignment of

new applications submitted to this program.  The NIDA and NIAAA will

participate in the NIGMS-administered MARC program.
