This grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse aims to support investigations into the neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms linking physical activity with brain function in relation to drug abuse. Researchers can explore how exercise affects processes affected by drug abuse and develop strategies for prevention and treatment. The grant supports both animal and human studies, with a focus on healthy individuals or substance-abusing populations. Utilizing a small research grant program, funds totaling $4 million in FY2009 will support 8 to 12 projects. Applications must demonstrate relevance to understanding or treating substance abuse.

| Description: | -Purpose. The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to stimulate investigations (using animal models or human subjects) of neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms that underlie the effects of physical activity on brain function across the lifespan as well as research designed to improve the translation of existing knowledge of the effects of exercise and physical activity into strategies for the prevention and treatment of drug abuse. The proposed line of investigation may focus on any neurobiological, behavioral or cognitive process that has been demonstrated to be affected by drugs of abuse or behaviors related to drug abuse. The research may be conducted in healthy individuals or, if scientifically appropriate, may include substance-abusing populations. All applications, however, must address how the proposed investigations are relevant to the understanding and/or treatment of substance abuse or how they may be implemented in substance abusing populations. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize a modified R03 small research grant program, which can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. NIDA intends to commit $4 million dollars in FY2009 to fund 8 to 12 applications in response to this FOA and its companion R01 RFA-DA-09-013. |
