2024 Indiana Alcohol Research Center Pilot Project Program

The Indiana Alcohol Research Center (IARC) is inviting proposals for pilot projects focusing on alcohol use disorders (AUD). This program aims to support investigators in generating preliminary data that can lead to extramural funding, with special interest in studies on the behavioral, biological, and genetic mechanisms of alcohol preference, binge-level and high-intensity drinking, tolerance, and other AUD-related mechanisms. The program offers up to $50,000 per year for two years, funding up to two projects. Priority is given to early-career investigators or those new to alcohol research, and applicants should be affiliated with the Indiana University system. The application process includes a letter of intent due by August 1, 2024, and a full proposal submission by September 3, 2024. Grant renewed every year. Project during 2 years
