Opportunity Summary:

The International Research Collaboration on Alcohol and Alcoholism (U01) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-11-282) is a National Institutes of Health program run by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) designed to strengthen and expand alcohol research through true international partnerships. Its central goal is to bring together alcohol research investigators based in the United States with investigators working in laboratories and research performance sites outside the U.S., so they can jointly advance scientific understanding of alcohol use, alcohol-related disorders, and the clinical and public health strategies that can prevent or reduce alcohol-related harm. The emphasis is on collaboration that benefits both sides by extending the research direction and capabilities of the U.S. and non-U.S. teams in a coordinated, shared project rather than loosely connected parallel work.

This funding is offered as a cooperative agreement (U01), meaning NIH/NIAAA expects to have substantial involvement with awardees compared with a standard research project grant. In practice, that typically means the agency may play an active role in shaping scientific priorities, facilitating coordination, and ensuring the collaboration meets program goals, while the grantee still leads day-to-day research execution. The activity area is health, and it falls under CFDA 93.273 (Alcohol Research Programs). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which reduces barriers for organizations that cannot provide substantial non-federal matching funds.

The award information provided indicates an award ceiling of $250,000, setting an upper bound on the amount available under this opportunity. The posting date is July 27, 2011, with an archive date of August 1, 2014, indicating the announcement is no longer active and has closed. Key dates included in the source record list an original closing date of September 7, 2014, a current closing date of July 1, 2014, and a creation date of July 1, 2014, reflecting the administrative record associated with the listing.

Eligibility is broad and includes many types of U.S. and non-U.S. organizations. Eligible applicants include federal, state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations (including certain non-federally recognized tribal entities); public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; independent school districts; and a wide range of nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, other than institutions of higher education). Small businesses and other for-profit organizations (other than small businesses) are also eligible. The eligibility notes specifically highlight additional categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions.

A major feature of this opportunity is that foreign participation is not only allowed but actively aligned with the program purpose. Non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations and foreign institutions) are eligible to apply, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are also eligible. The announcement also notes that foreign institutions may participate either as applicants or as subcontractors, particularly when they offer unique patient populations, specialized laboratory resources, exceptional scientific merit, or clear documented support that strengthens the collaboration. This reflects the program’s focus on leveraging resources and expertise that may be difficult to access within a single country, such as distinctive cohorts, cross-cultural or cross-national comparative settings, or specialized research infrastructure.

Overall, this opportunity supports joint U.S.-international research efforts aimed at improving the scientific and practical response to alcohol-related problems. The collaborative structure is intended to produce shared advances in knowledge and to strengthen research capacity and direction in both partnering laboratories, with NIAAA providing cooperative oversight consistent with a U01 mechanism. For the full archived announcement and detailed requirements, the listing points to the NIH Grants Guide page at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-11-282.html, and it provides NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contact details for access or linking issues (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV).

The program highlights value from resources and expertise that may be difficult to access within a single country, such as distinctive cohorts, cross-cultural or cross-national comparative settings, or specialized research infrastructure. It also points to unique patient populations, specialized laboratory resources, exceptional scientific merit, and clearly documented support as examples of strengths foreign partners may bring.

Are certain institution types specifically called out as eligible?

Yes. The eligibility notes specifically highlight additional categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions.
