What the grant funds
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) seeks applications to continue the previously funded Collaborative Initiative on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (CIFASD). Responsive applications are expected to address urgent and important unmet needs in the fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) field through an integrated and multidisciplinary research approach. These unmet needs include identifying FASD cases early and accurately, improving interventions to mitigate FASD outcomes; expanding basic and mechanistic understanding of alcohol teratogenesis aimed at accelerated translation, and reducing prenatal alcohol exposure and the incidence of FASD. Cooperative Agreement (U01) applications in response to this FOA should propose individual clinical or basic research projects.
