BRAIN Initiative: Team-Research BRAIN Circuit Programs - TeamBCP (U19 Basic Experimental Studies with Humans Required) | Varies | This FOA will support integrated, interdisciplinary research teams from prior BRAIN technology and/or integrated approaches teams, and/or new projects from the research community that focus on examining circuit functions related to behavior, using advanced and innovative technologies. The goal will be to support programs with a team science approach that can realize meaningful outcomes within 5-plus years. Awards will be made for 5 years, with a possibility of one competing renewal. Applications should address overarching principles of circuit function in the context of specific neural systems underlying sensation, perception, emotion, motivation, cognition, decision-making, motor control, communication, or homeostasis. Applications should incorporate theory-/model-driven experimental design and should offer predictive models as deliverables. Applications should seek to understand circuits of the central nervous system by systematically controlling stimuli and/or behavior while actively recording and/or manipulating relevant dynamic patterns of neural activity and by measuring the resulting behaviors and/or perceptions. Applications are expected to employ approaches guided by specified theoretical constructs, and are encouraged to employ quantitative, mechanistic models where appropriate. Applications will be required to manage their data and analysis methods in a prototype framework that will be developed and used in the proposed U19 project and exchanged with other U19 awardees for further refinement and development. Model systems, including the possibility of multiple species ranging from invertebrates to humans, can be employed and should be appropriately justified. Budgets should be commensurate with multi-component teams of research expertise including neurobiologists, statisticians, physicists, mathematicians, engineers, computer scientists, and data scientists, as appropriate - that seek to cross boundaries of interdisciplinary collaboration. https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=340653 |

HEAL Initiative: Rapidly Assessing the Public Health Impact of Emerging Opioid Threats (UG1 - Clinical Trial Optional) | Varies | The need to rapidly develop methods to assess the prevalence / health impact of emerging illicit drugs has never been greater. Illicit chemists are marketing potent drugs of abuse taken from deep wells of scientific and patent literature, which we can expect to continue to yield new drugs for many years. Over the last few years, fentanyl/fentalogs (fentanyl-related opioids) have flooded the illicit opioid market, which has complicated patient stabilization / harm reduction, and caused mortality rates to skyrocket. Even understanding the drugs being used is difficult due to unstandardized analytical methods, and urine test strip kit variabilities. When test strips do detect fentalogs they simply indicate fentanyl and clinicians base treatment on this homogenous grouping. However, it is unclear that the addictive or mortality risk of fentalogs are generalizable. Initially fentanyl was reported to be long-lasting and poorly antagonizable, but such reports diminished when carfentanil, an ultrapotent and long-lasting fentalog, diminished in drug supplies. Now, ultrapotent "nitazene" opioids are on the market and a lack of validated analytical protocols and standards, has meant these drugs are over-looked in most jurisdictions. Nitazene urine test strips do not yet exist and so clinicians are ill-equipped to recognize nitazenes and respond appropriately. Users certainly do not know whether nitazenes (or fentalogs) are illicit purchased drugs. This FOA promotes development and distribution of tools to detect nitazenes in the necessary range of settings needed to enable appropriately calculated responses. Additionally, this RFA builds-in funds to allow awardees to rapidly bring their discoveries and expertise to bear on the future generations of threats that are surely coming https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=341849 |
