Opportunity Summary:

The Limited Competition Alcohol HIV/AIDS Program Project on Behavioral Interactions and Intervention (P01) (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-AA-14-002) is a National Institutes of Health grant opportunity administered through the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). It supports a program project grant mechanism (P01), which is designed for coordinated, multi-project research efforts that can address a shared theme through several integrated components. In this case, the shared theme is cross-cutting research at the intersection of alcohol use and HIV/AIDS, with a clear emphasis on behavioral interactions and intervention-relevant science.

A central purpose of this FOA is to push research beyond basic associations and toward work that can realistically be translated into interventions. The overall public health target is reducing HIV infection and transmission by understanding and addressing how alcohol use influences HIV-related risk behaviors, treatment engagement, adherence, and other behavioral and social pathways that shape transmission dynamics and health outcomes. The announcement explicitly frames these priorities as aligned with the FY2013 Trans-NIH Plan for HIV-Related Research, signaling that applications should fit within broader NIH strategic HIV goals and should be positioned to contribute meaningfully to intervention development, testing, or implementation approaches connected to alcohol-related drivers of HIV risk and outcomes.

This is a limited competition announcement, meaning it is not open to the general research community. It specifically solicits renewal applications from current awardees of the Alcohol and HIV/AIDS Program Project on Behavioral Interactions and Intervention (P01). In practice, that means the opportunity is meant to continue and extend an existing, already-funded program project rather than start new P01 teams under this particular announcement. The competitive focus is therefore on demonstrating progress and productivity from the current award period and proposing a strong, cohesive next phase of integrated projects that maintain the cross-project synergy expected of a P01.

From an administrative and funding standpoint, the FOA is categorized as discretionary and uses the grant funding instrument. It sits under the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.273 (Alcohol Research Programs). The estimated total funding listed is $1,500,000, with an award ceiling of $1,500,000, and the FOA anticipates making one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which is typical for many NIH research grants unless otherwise specified.

Eligibility is also constrained in ways typical for NIH opportunities. While the FOA indicates that eligible applicants are described as "Others" with additional clarification in the full announcement, it clearly states that non-U.S. (foreign) institutions are not eligible to apply, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are also not eligible to apply. However, foreign components, as defined in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are allowed. In practical terms, the applicant organization must be an eligible U.S.-based entity, but certain portions of the scientific work may include foreign collaborations or components if they meet NIH policy definitions and are well-justified scientifically.

Key dates show that the opportunity was posted on December 12, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 15, 2014, and an archive date of May 16, 2014. The creation date listed is March 18, 2014. Because the FOA is archived, it functions as a historical funding notice rather than an active competition, but it remains a useful reference point for understanding NIAAA priorities and how NIH structured renewal support for this specific alcohol and HIV/AIDS program project line.

For applicants and interested parties seeking the full official requirements, the announcement points to the NIH grants guide page at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-AA-14-002.html.
