The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), with other NIH Institutes, intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications to support action-oriented research that accelerates the translation of addiction epidemiology, prevention, treatment, and recovery research to practice addressing both the opioid crisis and overdose events. Research supported under this initiative would focus on identifying and characterizing malleable factors and addressing barriers or facilitators to reducing substance use, misuse and overdose deaths at the individual, provider, organizational, community, or system levels. The emphasis would be on exploring and developing effective, replicable, and scalable approaches for accelerating the movement of evidence-based and promising treatments and preventive interventions into routine use. Specific priority areas would include, but not be limited to: recovery, prevention, pain/addiction intersections, engaging family and loved ones, transitions across care settings (e.g., inpatient treatment to community treatment), mental health integration, improving quality and efficiency of existing services and interventions, examining substance use and health outcomes and meaningful real-time data capture and use to improve services and public health approaches to reducing substance use, misuse, addiction, and overdose. Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO will utilize the R61/R33 activity code. Investigators with expertise and insights into this area of addiction epidemiology, prevention, treatment, recovery and health services research are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO. In addition, collaborative investigations combining expertise in modeling, health economics, implementation science, translation, or engagement science will be encouraged, and these investigators should also begin considering applying for this application.
