Opportunity Summary:
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant opportunity titled "Research on Alcohol and HIV/AIDS (R01)" (Funding Opportunity Number PA-10-103) supports health-focused research that sits at the intersection of alcohol misuse and HIV/AIDS. The central idea is that alcohol use, especially problem drinking, can increase the risk of HIV acquisition and transmission and can also worsen outcomes for people already living with HIV. The announcement is set up to attract a wide range of investigators: alcohol researchers who have not previously worked in HIV but want to apply their expertise to HIV-related problems, HIV researchers who recognize alcohol as a major driver of poorer clinical outcomes and want to strengthen alcohol-focused intervention work, and teams already experienced in studying co-occurring HIV and substance use.
The FOA highlights three main research objectives. First, it aims to expand research that clarifies how important alcohol reduction is for preventing HIV infection and limiting transmission. This includes work that helps quantify alcohol's role in risk behaviors and biological vulnerability, and studies that test or refine combined alcohol and HIV prevention strategies that could be used as public health measures. Second, it encourages research that improves understanding of how HIV disease progresses when alcohol exposure continues, including studies that explore mechanisms, clinical trajectories, and ways to prevent or mitigate alcohol-related harms among people with HIV. Third, it seeks the development of practical, "operational" research frameworks that address why infections occur and persist in high-risk groups and how interventions can be implemented effectively in real-world settings. The announcement explicitly points to populations that experience disproportionate burden or elevated risk, such as minority women and young gay men, and it emphasizes translating findings so they are meaningful and usable for these targeted communities.
This is an R01 grant mechanism, meaning it is intended for robust, hypothesis-driven research projects that can generate substantial new knowledge and, in many cases, support multi-year programs of work. The activity category is Health, and it is associated with CFDA number 93.273 (Alcohol Research Programs). The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can reduce barriers for applicants.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations across the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. Eligible applicants include small businesses; nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) entities, with the noted exception categories); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); private and public institutions of higher education; state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; Native American tribal governments (both federally recognized and other than federally recognized) and tribal organizations; and a range of mission-focused institutions and community entities. The FOA also lists additional eligible 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 and community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, eligible federal agencies, and non-U.S. (foreign) entities.
Key dates provided in the source show it was posted on February 3, 2010, with an original and current closing date of January 7, 2013, and an archive date of February 7, 2013. While this particular listing is archived, the summary of its scope is still useful as a guide to the kinds of alcohol and HIV/AIDS research NIH has sought to advance, especially research that connects alcohol misuse reduction to HIV prevention, improves outcomes for people living with HIV, and produces implementable strategies for high-risk and underserved populations.
