Opportunity Summary:
The Secondary Analysis of Existing Alcohol Epidemiology Data (R01) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PA 08 167) is a discretionary NIH grant announcement from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). Its central goal is to fund research projects that re-use and re-examine already-existing datasets to improve what is known about alcohol use in populations. Rather than supporting new primary data collection, this program is aimed at investigators who can take advantage of established epidemiologic, survey, clinical, administrative, or other large-scale data resources to answer important questions about patterns of alcohol consumption and the epidemiology of alcohol-related problems. In practice, the emphasis is on generating new insights from data that have already been collected, such as identifying trends, risk and protective factors, subgroup differences, or relationships between alcohol use and health or social outcomes.
The mechanism of support is the NIH Research Project Grant (R01), which is the standard, full-scale NIH research award intended for more developed projects with clear aims, strong analytic plans, and adequate justification for the scope of work. This FOA is part of a matched set of announcements with the same scientific focus, offered at different grant sizes and stages: applicants who have smaller or more exploratory projects could look to parallel opportunities using the R03 mechanism (PA 08 169) or the R21 mechanism (PA 08 168). The R01 version is meant for projects that are ready for a more comprehensive, hypothesis-driven, and methodologically robust secondary analysis effort.
Funding decisions under PA 08 167 are described as contingent on the availability of appropriated funds and on the receipt of a sufficient number of high-quality, meritorious applications, meaning there is no guaranteed number of awards. The program falls under the Health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.273 (Alcohol Research Programs). It explicitly states that cost sharing or matching is not required, which is typical for many NIH research grants and can reduce the financial barrier for applicants.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of organizational types. Eligible applicants span public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) entities and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), small businesses, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. Government entities at multiple levels can apply, including state, county, city or township governments, and special district governments, as well as independent school districts and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. The eligibility list also includes Native American tribal organizations and tribal governments (including federally recognized tribal governments, and in additional eligibility language, tribal governments that are not federally recognized), along with tribally controlled colleges and universities (TCCUs). The FOA also notes eligibility for Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, eligible federal agencies, and non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations). Overall, the intent is to encourage a wide set of institutions with access to relevant datasets and analytic expertise to contribute to alcohol epidemiology through secondary data analysis.
Key administrative dates in the public record include a posted date of May 23, 2008, a creation date of December 5, 2008, and an original and current closing date of September 7, 2011, with an archive date of October 8, 2011. While the opportunity is archived now, the summary captures the original scope and structure: an NIH/NIAAA R01 program supporting rigorous secondary analyses of existing alcohol epidemiology datasets to advance understanding of consumption patterns and alcohol-related harms. For the full archived announcement and detailed requirements (such as application structure, review criteria, and any dataset-related expectations), the FOA page is listed as http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-08-167.html, and the contact noted for access or technical issues is the NIH Office of Extramural Research webmaster (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV).
