Details:
The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of this R25 program is to support educational activities that foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral and clinical research and its implications.
The overarching goals of the NIH R25 program are to:
- complement and/or enhance the training of a workforce to meet the nation’s biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs;
- enhance the diversity of the biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research workforce;
- help recruit individuals with specific specialty or disciplinary backgrounds to research careers in biomedical, behavioral, and clinical sciences; and
- foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research and its implications.
NIDA and NIAAA will support applications to this NOFO for projects designed to engage practicing health care professionals in education and research on AUD/SUD. This goal can be accomplished using a variety of approaches, models, and activities; programs should provide high impact research experiences to health care providers or those training health care providers. Activities should go beyond the development of brochures or toolkits, unless there is substantial clear evidence for the impact of such materials and they are measurably different from what already exists. Applications that address health disparities, underrepresented populations, or underserved and disadvantaged populations are encouraged. Furthermore, NIDA and NIAAA are looking for creative and novel approaches to training practicing health care providers in treating AUD/SUD. Each program should address the following components within the application:
- A comprehensive dissemination plan describing how the materials developed can be shared with other potential programs and partners.
- An evaluation plan that canvasses participants and mentors. The evaluation plan should detail how feedback will be gathered, interpreted, and implemented throughout the life of the program.
- A sustainability plan, i.e., evidence that the program can continue beyond the life of the grant
