Mechanistic Research on Neuromodulation for Substance Use Disorders Treatment (R01 Clinical Trial Optional) (RFA-DA-24-031)


The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to encourage clinical research that will identify and validate

  • Novel targets for non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS)

and

  • Substance use disorder (SUD)-relevant neurobiological, cognitive, and behavioral responses to NIBS that may precede clinical outcomes like reduced craving or substance use

This NOFO requires a Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP), which will be assessed as part of the scientific and technical peer review evaluation. Applications that fail to include a PEDP will be considered incomplete and will be withdrawn. Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the NOFO instructions carefully and view the available PEDP guidance material.
