The NIDA Avant-Garde Award Program for HIV/AIDS Research supports exceptionally creative scientists, who propose high-impact research that will open new areas of HIV/AIDS research in the context of Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and/or lead to new avenues for prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS in people who use drugs (PWUD). The term “avant-garde” refers to highly innovative ideas and/or approaches that have the potential to be transformative. Applications responding to this FOA must propose research that is substantially different from what is currently being pursued by the investigator or others and should support the NIH HIV/AIDS Research Priorities https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-20-018.html__;!!PhOWcWs!g5Af6a_-UqX8D7GUdd3Z9NQDc0DG_LA-SdGtzjzvmWBYpzE6BiVHU1cmVRJnwy5R28Ia4_8EPqvHoJNHrRk$ . The NIDA Avant-Garde award supports innovative basic, clinical and translational research that may lead to improved therapies or preventive interventions for HIV/AIDS for PWUD; creative, new strategies to prevent HIV transmission in high-risk drug using populations; novel approaches to improve HIV and HIV-related comorbid disease outcomes; and creative approaches to eradicating HIV and improving the lives of PWUD living with HIV in general.

The Avenir Award Program for research on Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and HIV/AIDS looks towards the future by supporting early stage investigators (ESI) proposing highly innovative studies that address NIH HIV/AIDS Research Priorities https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-20-018.html__;!!PhOWcWs!g5Af6a_-UqX8D7GUdd3Z9NQDc0DG_LA-SdGtzjzvmWBYpzE6BiVHU1cmVRJnwy5R28Ia4_8EPqvHoJNHrRk$ . The Avenir Award Program will support creative individuals who wish to pursue innovative research at the nexus of SUD and HIV/AIDS. The purpose of this program is to support broad spectrum of approaches spanning both basic and clinical research that have the potential to benefit substance using populations with or at risk for HIV/AIDS by reducing HIV incidence, optimizing therapies for HIV and SUD, reducing the impact of comorbid conditions, and ultimately, eradicating HIV. Applications responding to this FOA must clearly describe the intersection of substance use disorders with HIV/AIDS.
Due August 13, 2020; August 13, 2021; and August 15, 2022. Med-RA deadline to receive draft documents for August 13, 2020 due date: August 3.

Avenir Award Program for Genetics or Epigenetics of Substance Use Disorders (DP1 Clinical Trial Optional)<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-20-225.html__;!!PhOWcWs!g5Af6a_-UqX8D7GUdd3Z9NQDc0DG_LA-SdGtzjzvmWBYpzE6BiVHU1cmVRJnwy5R28Ia4_8EPqvHFiUkWuk$ >
This award looks toward the future by supporting early stage investigators proposing highly innovative studies. The award will support those in an early stage of their career who may lack the preliminary data required for an R01 grant, but who propose high impact research and who show promise of being tomorrow’s leaders in the field. NIDA has developed two Avenir Award Programs, one for HIV/AIDS research and the other for genetics or epigenetics studies.
The Genetics or Epigenetics of Substance Use Disorders Avenir Award program supports early stage investigators proposing highly innovative studies that open new areas of research for the genetics or epigenetics of addiction. These may be novel methods or approaches that can potentially be applied to the analysis of the genetics or epigenetics of addiction. Investigators outside the field of addiction interested in applying their novel approaches to the genetics or epigenetics of addiction are encouraged to apply. The award will support those in an early stage of their career who may lack the preliminary data required for an R01 grant, but who propose high impact research and who show promise of being tomorrow’s leaders in the field of genetics or epigenetics of substance use disorders.

NSF: Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases (EEID)<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19592/nsf19592.htm__;!!PhOWcWs!g5Af6a_-UqX8D7GUdd3Z9NQDc0DG_LA-SdGtzjzvmWBYpzE6BiVHU1cmVRJnwy5R28Ia4_8EPqvHSQRiQQg$ >
The multi-agency Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases program supports research on the ecological, evolutionary, and social drivers that influence the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases. The central theme of submitted projects must be the quantitative or computational understanding of pathogen transmission dynamics. The intent is discovery of principles of infectious disease transmission and testing mathematical or computational models that elucidate infectious disease systems. Projects should be broad, interdisciplinary efforts that go beyond the scope of typical studies. They should focus on the determinants and interactions of transmission among humans, non-human animals, and/or plants. This includes, for example, the spread of pathogens; the influence of environmental factors such as climate; the population dynamics and genetics of reservoir species or hosts; the feedback between ecological transmission and evolutionary dynamics; and the cultural, social, behavioral, and economic dimensions of pathogen transmission. Research may be on zoonotic, environmentally-borne, vector-borne, or enteric pathogens of either terrestrial or aquatic systems and organisms, including diseases of animals and plants, at any scale from specific pathogens to inclusive environmental systems. Proposals for research on disease systems of public health concern to developing countries are strongly encouraged, as are disease systems of concern in agricultural systems. Investigators are encouraged to develop the appropriate multidisciplinary team, including for example, anthropologists, modelers, ecologists, bioinformaticians, genomics researchers, social scientists, economists, oceanographers, mathematical scientists, epidemiologists, evolutionary biologists, entomologists, parasitologists, microbiologists, bacteriologists, virologists, pathologists or veterinarians, with the goal of integrating knowledge across disciplines to enhance our ability to predict and control infectious diseases.
Due November 18, 2020. Med-RA deadline to receive draft documents: November 4.
