Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 66, is applicable to these awards. Domestic nonprofit private or non-Federal public institutions may apply for grants to support training programs in specified areas of research. Predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees may be supported if either or both leveled of training are justified in the application and approved. The applicant institution must have, or be able to develop, the staff and facilities required for the proposed programs. The training program director at the institution will be responsible for the selection and appointment of trainees to receive National Research Service Awards and for the overall direction of the program. The proposed program must Encompass supervised biomedical research in one or more of We specified areas, and offer opportunity for research training le~a~r~g to the research degree, or, for those who have already attained the research degree, opportunity to broaden their scientific: background; for those who have attained the health professional degree the supervised research should be accompanied by training in scientific methodology. National Research Serv ice Awards (NRSA) wi ll not support study leading to the M.D., D.O., D.D.S., or other similar professional degrees, nor will they support non-research clinical training. :LS4

Applicants -are advised to contact the person designated in the area listing to discuss any questions, and especially - if ( 1) an application inc. luding predoctoral training is planned ~ or (2) compatibility between institutional and agency training aims is in doubt, or (3) questions arise as to waiver provision for the three-year limit.on NRSA support. (Note that the awn of obtaining postdoctoral -training after NRSA-supported predoctoral training is cited in the regulations as "good cause" for granting a waiver to the three-year limit (~66.106(d)~.) - \ Re vi ew a nd se] ec ti on . NRSA grant applications will be evaluated by initial - review groups at the NIH; they are also sub j ect to review and appro~ral by the appropriate advisory council of the NIH. The application will be evaluated on the basis of records and qualifications of participating faculty, the proposed research training objectives and program design, previous training record of the program and its ability to attract high caliber students, institutional commitment, faci titles and environment, and relationship of the proposed program goals to need for research personnel. GENERAL PROV I S IONS . . Eligibility requirements. Individuals appointed as trainees on the grant must be citizens or non-citizen nationals of the United States, or must have been lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence and have in their possession an Alien Registration Receipt Card (I-151) at tLmeiof appointment. A non-citizen national. is a person who, although not a citizen of the United States, owes permanent allegiance to the United States. They are generally persons born in lands which are not States , but which are under Un, ted States sovereignty, jurisdiction, or administration (e. g. American Samoa) . Individuals on temporary or student visas are..not eligible. Predoctoral trainees must have received an appropriate baccalaureate degree.as of the date of appointment to the approved training program. An individual at the postdoctoral level must have received as of the date of appointment to the approved training program, a Ph.D., M.D., D.D.S. , D.O., D.V.M. , O.D., SC.D. , D.Eng., D.N.S., or equivalent domestic or foreign degree. ~5

Stipends and allowances requested will be as follows: At the predoctoral, level the annual stipend is S3,900. For postdoctorals, the stipend for the first year of support is determined by the number of years of prior relevant postdoctoral experience at time of appointment in accordance with the accompanying table. Relevant experience may include research experience (including industrials, teaching, internship, residency, or other time spent in full-time pursuit of additional degrees or full-time studies in a health-rel ated field at a level beyond that of the qualifying doctoral degree. The stipend for each additional year of support is based on the level of the first year plus $400 for each additional year under the National Research Service Award.. There is no allowance for dependents.

Tuition at the postdoctoral level is limited to that required for specified courses. The institution may request tuition and fees ~ including appropriate medical insurance) only to the extent that the same resident or nonresident tub tion and -fees are charged to regular non-federally supported students; the institution may request actual indirect costs or 8% of allowable direct costs (whichever is less) and up to 25% of the total award for costs deemed essential to carry out the NRSA-tra~n~ng program such as salaries, equipment, research supplies, staff travel, etc. Period of support. Awards for institutional grants may be made for project periods of up to ~ years.: However, no individual may receive more than three years of support in the aggregate from a National Research Service Award. Any exception to this requires a waiver from the Agency head based on review of justification from the trainee and the grantee institution. Cond7~0ns of award. No trainee may be supported unless a Statement of Appointment form and a signed Payback Agreement-indicating his or her intent to meet the service or payback provisions required under the law ~6

Page Four have been submitted to NIH. Trainee appointments are made for full-time research training and research. Trainees may utilize some of their tome in academic studies and clinical duties if such work is closely related to their research training experience. A NRSA award may not be held concurrently with another Federally sponsored fellowship or similar Federal award which provides a stipend or otherwise duplicates provisions of the NRS award. NRSA recipients may, however, accept concurrent educational remuneration from the Veterans Administration Berg. G.I. Bill) and loans from Federal funds. Supplementation of the NRSA stipend from non-Federal funds is permitted. Other Federal funds may be used for supplementation only if explicitly authorized by the program from which such funds are derived. No NIH, ADAMHA, or ON grant funds may be used for supplementation. This is not intended to discourage in any way the use of Federal loan funds. This additional support may be provided without obligation by the trainee or may be conditioned on his or her performance of certain services such as teaching or serving as a laboratory assistant. Under no circumstances, however, should the service requirements detract from or prolong the training. Within two years after completion of NRSA support, recipients of-NRS Awards are to engage in continuous health-related biomedical or behavioral research or teaching or any combination thereof which is in accordance with usual patterns of academic employment for a period equal to the period of support. Alternatively, if the Secretary, DHEW, determines there are no suitable health research or teaching positions available to the individual, the following may be authorized: (1) If the individual is a physician, dentist, nurse, or other individual trained to provide health care directly to patients, the Secretary may authorize (a) service in the National Health Service Corps, (b) service in his or her specialty in a geographic area designated by the Secretary, or (c) service in his or her specialty in a health maintenance organization serving a medically underserved population; (2) If the individual who received the NRS Award is not trained to provide health care to patients, the Secretary may authorize the individual to engage in some other health-related activity. For each year for which an individual receives a NBS Award he or she shall (a) engage in twelve months of health research or teaching, (b} serve 12 months as a member of the National Health Service Corps, or (c) if authorized by the Secretary for one of the other alternatives, shall serve twenty months for each year of award. For individuals who fail to fulf ill their obligation through service, the On ited States is entitled to recover an amount equal to the total stipend received plus interest. The amount is computed in accordance with a formula which gives only one-half creditor each month of service when the total payback obligation is not completely fulfilled through 187

Interest on the amount begins on the date the United States becomes entitled to such amount; it is computed at a rate f ixed by the Secretary of the Treasury considering private consumer rates prevailing on that date. Payment must be completed within three years. By Federal Regulation, there are certain conditions under which the Secretary, HOW, may extend the period for undertaking service or for repayment, permit breaks in service, or otherwise waive or suspend the payback obligation of an individual where enforcement of the obligation would involve extreme hardship or be against e ~ ity and good conscience. Trainees are not entitled to vacations, as such, although those at academic institutions may take the holidays at Christmas, in the Spring, etc., and the short period between semesters or quarters. The tome between a summer session and a fall semester is considered an active part of the training period. Those at non-academic institutions are entitled to the normal holiday and vacation periods of the institution. Taxabi ~ i ty of sti pends .

PAGE TWO Prior to formal submission, an applicant must arrange for appointment to an appropriate institution Ad acceptance by a sponsor who will supervise his or her training and research experience. He institutional setting may be a- domestic non-profit private or public institution including the NIH and ADAMHA. The application must document the availability of staff and facilities to provide a suitable environment for performing high-quality work. The major emphasis of the application should be the research training experience and broadening of scientific competence. Under exceptional circumstances when such study and opportunity are not available at any domestic institution, an individual may request support for study abroad. Such applicant will be required to provide detailed justi- fication based on the unique facilities and/or training opportunity-that are of the nature and caliber that they cannot be found in the U.S. and the particular suitability of the foreign situation, rather than the domestic, to the proposed research. Documents to be submitted. The applicant must submit (1) an application assurance that the service or payback requirement will be complied with, if an award is made, and (3) if a non-citizen, a notarized statement of permanent residence. Since a compl ete application includes the sponsor's Facilities and Commitment Statement, that Statement (PHS 416-2) must be with the appli cati on when submitted. In addition, an applicant will arrange for the submission of reference reports (PHS 416-3) on his or her behalf. An individual may not have two competing applications pending review con- currently in the National Research Service Award program. App] ication material.

The stipend is not a payment for services performed. Fellows supported under individual awards are not considered to be employees either of PHS or of their sponsoring institution. For fellows sponsored by domestic non-Federal institutions, the payment of the stipend will be made through the sponsoring institution. For fellows sponsored by Federal or foreign institutions the stipend payment will be made directly by U.S. Treasury check. No allowance will be provided for dependents or travel to a domestic training site. Fellows affiliating with foreign sponsoring institutions will receive a single economy or coach round-trip travel fare to the training s ite . Upon request, the NIB will provide funds of up to $3,000 per 12-month period to the non-Federal sponsoring institution to help defray such trainee expenses as tuition and fees (including appropriate medical insurance), research supplies, equipment, travel to scientific meetings , and related items. The allowance is under control of the sponsoring institution. An allowance of up to $1,000 is available for the fellow sponsored by a Federal laboratory for scientific meeting travel-expenses and appropriate medical insurance. Period of support. No individual may receive more than three years of ~ National Research Service Award support in the aggregate. Any exception to this requires a waiver from the Agency head based on review of justification from the applicant and sponsor. Any waiver request should be submitted with the application. Although fellowships are awarded for 12-month periods, assurances may be given by the awarding unit for continued support: beyond the first year provided progress is satisfactory and Ends a~ avai fable .

An applicant is notified by the awarding unit- of the final action on the application by an award notice or by a-letter. ActTvatTon date. An awardee has until the end of 12 months from the issue date on the award notice to activate a new award. Conditions of award. No award will be made to an individual unless that- , . . individual has signed and submitted a Payback Agreement indicating his or her intent to meet the service or payback provisions required under the law as a condition under which a National Research Service Award is made and accepted. Individual awards are made for ful1-time research and research training. Health professional postdoctorals may utilize some of their time in clinical duties only if such work is part of the research training.- . A NRSA award may not be held concurrently with another Federally sponsored fellowship or similar Federal award which provides a stipend or otherwise duplicates provisions of the award. NRSA recipients may, however, accept concurrent educational remuneration from the- Veterans Administration (e. g. G. I. Bill) Ad loans f rom Federal funds. Supplementation of the NRSA stipend from non-Federal funds is permitted. Other Federal funds nay be used for supplementation only if explicitly authorized by the program from which such funds are derived. No NIH, ADAMHA, or DN grant funds may be used for supplementation. Lois is not intended to discourage in any way the use of Federal loan fiends. this additional support may be provided without obligation by the trainee or may be conditioned on his or her performance of certain services such as teaching or serving as a laboratory assistant. Under no circumstances, however, should the service requirements detract from or prolong the training. Fellows are not entitled to vacations, as such, although those at academic institutions may take the holidays at Christmas, in the Spring, etc., and the short period between semesters or quarters. The time between a summer session and a fall semester is considered an active part of the training period. Those at non-academic institutions are entitled to the normal holiday and vacation periods of the institution. Payback reauirement. Within two years after completion of NRSA support, . recipients of USE Awards are to engage in continuous biomedical or behavioral research or teaching or any combination thereof which is in accordance with usual patterns of academic employment for a period equal to the period of support. Alternatively, if the Secretary, DHEW, determines there are no suitable health research or teaching positions available to the individual, the following may be authorized: (1) If the individual is a physician, dentist, nurse, or other individual trained to provide health care directly to patients, Me Secretary may authorize (a) service 192

PAGE FIVE in the National Health Service Corps, (b) service in his or her specialty in a geographic area designated by the Secretary, or (c) service in his or her specialty in ~ health maintenance organization serving a medically underserved population; (2) If the individual who received the NRS Award is not trained to provide health care to patients, the Secretary may authorize the individual to engage in some other health-related activity. For each year for which an individual receives a NRS Award he or she shall (a) engage in twelve months of health research or teaching, (b) serve 12 months as a member of the National Health Service Corps, or (c) if authorized by the Secretary for one of the other alternatives, shall serve twenty months for each year of award. For individuals who fail to fulfill their obligation through service, the United States is entitled to recover an amount equal to the amount paid to the individual plus interest. The amount is computed in accordance with a formula which gives only one-half credit to each month of service when the total payback obligation is not completely fulfilled through service. Interest on the amount begins and is at the rate fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury considering private consumer rates which prevail on the date the United States becomes entitled to such amount. . . . Payment must be completed within three years from that date. By Federal Regulation, there are certain conditions under which the Secretary, HEW, may extend the period for undertaking service or for repayment, permit breaks in service, or to otherwise waive or suspend . the payback obligation of an individual where enforcement of the obligation would involve extreme hardship or be against equity and good conscience. Taxabili tY of st ; pends . The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the NRSA awards are made primarily for the benefit of the grantor and are accordingly not excludable from gross income as fellowships.

Ns~n-citizen nationals are persons born in lands which are not States, but which are under U.S. sovereignty, Jurisdiction, or administration (e . g ., American Samoa) . Individuals on temporary or student visas are not eligible. Predoctoral individuals selected to receive NRS Awards must have completed two or more years of graduate work at the time of appointment to the NRSA training program. Postdoctoral individuals selected to receive NRS Awards must have received a Ph.D., M.D., D.D.S., D.O., D.~.M., O.D., Sc.D., D.Eng., D.N.S., or equivalent domestic or foreign degree as of the date of appointment to the NRSA training program. National Research Service Awards are not made for study leading to the M.De ~ D.O., D.D.S., or other similar professional degrees, or for study which is part of residency training leading to a medical specialty. STIPENDS AND OTHER TRAINING COSTS: The annual stipend for predoctoral individuals at all levels is $3,900. For postdoctoral individuals the stipend for the first year is determined by the number of years of prior relevant postdoctoral experience at the time of appointment. Relevant experience may include research experience (including industrial), teaching, internship, residency, or other time spent in full-time pursuit of additional degrees or full-time studies in 206

a health-related field at a level beyond that of the qualifying doctoral degree. The stipend for each subsequent year of support is based on the level of the first year plus $400 for each additional year under a National Research Service Award. __ ?__ Years of Relevant Postdoctoral Experience at Time of Initial Appointment Y E A R O F A W A R D 1st Year 2nd Year 3rd Year 0 $10,000 $10,400 $10,800 1 10,800 11,200 11,600 2 11,500 11,900 12,300 3 12,200 12,600 13,000 4 12,800 13,200 13,600 5 or more 13,200 13,600 14,000 The stipend is a pre-established level of support to help provide for the trainee's living expenses during the period of training.

Institutions may supplement stipends as necessary from institutional resources. No ADAMHA grant funds may be used for supplementation. No supplementation may be provided from other Federal funds unless explicitly authorized under teems of the specific program from which such funds are received. In addition to stipends, the institution may request funds for tuition, fees and certain types of travel for trainees; actual indirect costs or 8% of allowable direct costs (whichever is less) to cover related institutional overhead; and up to 25% of the total award for other related costs (salaries, equipment, research supplies, etc.) which are deemed essential to carry out the program of training for the National Research Service Awardees appointed under the grant. Funds for such ''other related costs" are intended to provide the institution with only partial support For the costs of developing or maintaining a high quality environment for the proposed research training and for meeting the costs of trainee research. Tuition at the postdoctoral level is limited to that required for specified courses. ; 207

PERIOD OF SUPPORT: Awards for institutional grants may be made for pro] ect periods of up to f ive years . Individuals appointed under institutional grants to receive National Research Service Awards may not receive support for more than three years in the aggregate. Any excep- tion to the three year limit requires a waiver from the Director of the awarding Institute based on review of justif ication from the awardee and the program director for the institutional grant. CONDITIONS OF AWARD: No trainee will be appointed unless he-or she meets the eligibility requirements ~ and unless a completed Statement of Appoint- ment Form and a signed Payback Agreement (indicating the individualts intent to meet the service or payback provis ions required under the law and described in the subsequent paragraph) have been submitted to ADAMHA. Institutions shall notify prospective trainees of this provision prior to or at the time an appointment is of f ered e At the end of the total support period for an individual trainee, the institution must submit a Termination Notice form to A.DAMHAe Failure to submit the required forms ~ n a timely f ashion may result in an expenditure disallowance . No funds f or tuition, fees, or trainee travel costs may be prc,nrided from an insti tutional NRSA grant to, or or behalf of, any individual unless that individual is receiving a stipend under the NRSA "rant O Within two years af ter completion of NRSA support, individual recipients of NRS Awards are to engage, for a period equal to the period of support, in biomedical or behavioral research or teaching, or any combination thereof . When in academic employment, such research or teaching may be in any combination in accordance with the usual patterns of academic employment . Alternatively, if the Secretary, HEW, determines there are not suitable health research or teaching positions available to the individual, the following may be authorized: (1) If the individual is ~ physician, dentist ~ nurse, or other individual trained to provide health care directly to patients, the Secretary may authorize (a) service in the National Health Service Corps, (b) service in his or her specialty in a geographic area designated by the Secretary, or (c) service in his or her specialty in a health maintenance organization serving a medically underserYed population; or, (2) If the individual who received the NRS Award is not trained to provide health care to patients, the Secretary may authorize the individual to engage in some other health-related activity. For each year for which an individual receives an NRS Award he or she shall (a) engage in twelve months of health research or teaching, (b) serve twelve months as ~ member of the National Health Service Corps, or (c) if authorized by the Secretary for one of the other alternatives, shall serve twenty months for each year of award. For individuals who fail to fulfill their full service obligation, the United States is entitled to recover an amount equal deco ache total stipend received from the institutional grant, plus interest. The amount is computed in accordance with a f ormula which gives one-half credit to months actually served. Interest on the amount begins and is at the 208

rate fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury considering private consumer rates which prevail on the date the United States becomes entitled to such amount. Financial payback must be completed within three years from that date. By Federal Regulation, there are certain conditions under which the Secretary, HEW, may extend the period for undertaking service;or for financial payback, permit breaks in service, or otherwise waive or sus- pend the payback obligation to an individual where enforcement of the obligation would involve extreme hardship or be against equity and good conscience. National Research Service Awards provided to individuals under institutional grants are made for full-time research training. Awardees may uti lize some of their time in course studies and clinical duties if such work is closely related to and necessary for the research training experience. No appoint- ment for less than nine months may be made without the prior approval of the ADAMMA awarding unit. An NRS Award recipient may not hold another federally sponsored fellowship or training award concurrently with a National Research Service Award. An awardee may, however, accept concurrent educational remuneration from the Veterans Administration (e.g., G.I. Bill) and loans from Federal funds. TAXABILITY OF STIPENDS: The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the NRS Awards are made primarily for the benefit of the grantor and are accordingly not excludable from gross income as fellowships. (IRS Bulletin No. 1977-36, dated September 6, 1977.) REVIEW PROCESS AND REVIEW CRITERIA: Applications for institutional grants are evaluated for scientific/technica1 merit by ADAMHA initial review groups and also are subject to the review and recommendations of the appropriate ADAMMA Advisory Council. Applications will be evaluated on the basis of records and qualifications of participating faculty, the proposed research objectives and program design, the criteria to be employed in selecting individuals to receive NRS Awards, previous training record of the program and its ability to attract high caliber students ~ institutional commitments, facilities and environment, and relationship of the proposed program goals to need f or research training in ADAMHA program areas. FUNDING CRITERIA: Awarding components select applications for funding . primarily on the basis of merit review results ~ but other factors which may be considered include availability of funds ~ priority on postdoctoral support ~ program priorities as indicated in the research areas specified in this announcement ~ and grants policy requirements 209

The stipend is not a payment for services performed. Fellows supported under individual awards are not considered to be employees ei ther of PHS or of their spon- soring institution. For fellows sponsored by domestic non-Federal institutions, the payment of the stipend will be made through the sponsoring institution. For fellows sponsored by Federal institutions, the stipend payment will be made directly by U.S. Treasury check. Institutions may supplement stipends as necessary from institutional resources. No ADAMHA grant funds may be used for supplementation. No supplementation may be provided from other Federal funds unless explic- itly authorized under terms of the specific program from which such funds are received. Funds will not be provided to cover the cost of travel between the fellow's place of residence and the training institution, except (1) the institution may authorize from the institutional allowance a one-way travel allowance in a case of extreme need or hardship; or, (2) the ADAMHA awarding compo- nent may authorize the cost of a si ngle roundtrip economy or coach ticket to the training site when the approved training is at a foreign site or institution. Upon request, ADAMHA will provide funds of up to $3,000 per 12-month period to the non-Federal sponsoring institution to help defray such trainee expenses as tuition and fees, research supplies, equipment, travel to scientific meetings, and related items. An allowance of up to 31,000 per 12-month period is available for the f ellow sponsored by a Federal labora- tory for scientific meeting travel expenses and appropriate medical insurance. When an individual award is for approved training involving research at sites other than the sponsoring institution, an allowance may be requested to help support field costs of the research as well as travel. 213

The sponsoring institution shall be entitled to the approved institutional allowance only upon official activation of the award. However, if an individual fellow is not enrolled or engaged in training for more than six months of the year of support for which the award was made, one-half of the allowance must be refunded to the Public Health Service. PERIOD OF SUPPORT: No individual may receive more than three years of support in the aggregate under the National Research Service Award program. Any exception to this requires a waiver from the Director of the awarding Institute based on review of justification from the Awardee and his or her sponsor. Although fellowships are awarded for 12-month periods, assurances may be given by the awarding unit for continued support beyond the first year provided progress is satisfactory and funds are available. ACTIVATION DATE: An awardee has until the end of twelve months from the issue date on the award notice to activate a new award. 1 CONDITIONS OF AWARD: No funds will be made available to an individual unless he or she has signed and submitted a Payback Agreement indicating his or her intent to meet payback provisions required under the law. At the end of the total support period, the individual fellow must submit a Termination Notice form to ADAMHA. Failure to submit the required f arms in a timely fashion may result in collection actions. Within two years af ter completion of NRSA support, recipients of NRS Awards are to engage for a period equal to the period of support in biomedical or behavioral research or teaching or any combination thereof. When in aca- demic "mployment, such research or teaching may be in any combination in accordance with the usual patterns of academic employment. Alternatively, if the Secretary, HEW, determines that there are no suitable health re- search or teaching positions available to the individual, the following may be authorized: (1) If the individual is a physician' dentist, nurse, or otherwise trained to provide health care directly to patients, the Secretary may authorize (a) service in the National Health Service Corps, (b) service in his or her specialty in a geographic area designated by the Secretary, or (c) service in his or her specialty in a health main- tenance organization serving a medically underserved population; or (2) If the individual who received the NRS Award is not trained to provide health care to patients, the Secretary may authorize the indi- vidual to engage in some other health-related activity. For each year for which an individual receives an NRS Award he or she shall (a) engage in twelve months of health research or teaching, (b) serve twelve months as a member of the National Health Service Corps, or (c) if authorized by the Secretary for one of the other alternatives, shall serve twenty months for each year of award. For individuals who fail to fulfill their full service obligation, the United States is entitled to recover an amount equal to the stipend - received from the ADAMHA National Research Service Awards, plus interest. The amount is computed in accordance with a formula which gives one-half 214

credit to months actually served. Interest on the amount begins and is at the rate fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury considering private consumer rates which prevail on the date the United States becomes entitled to such ~mount. Financial payback must be completed within three years from that date. By Federal Regulation, there are certain conditions under which the Secretary, HEW, may extend the period for undertaking service or for financial payback, permit breaks in service, or otherwise waive or sus- pend the payback obligation to an individual where enforcement of the obligation would involve extreme hardship or would be against equity and good conscience. Awards are made for full-time research training. Fellows may utilize some of their time in course studies and clinical duties if such work is closely related to and necessary for their research training experience. An NRS Award recipient may not hold another federally sponsored fellowship concurrently with a National Research Service Award. An NRSA recipient may, however, accept concurrent educational remuneration from the Veterans Administration (e.g., G.I. Bill) and loans from Federal funds. Fellows are not entitled to vacations, as such, although fellows at academic institutions may take the holidays at Christmas, in the spring, etc., and the short period between semesters and quarters. The time between a summer session and a fall semester is considered an active part of the training period. Those at non-academic institutions are entitled to the normal holiday and vacation periods of the institutions. TAXABILITY OF STIPENDS: The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the . NRS Awards are made primarily for the benefit of the grantor and are accordingly not excludable from gross income as fellowships. (IRS Bulletin No. 1977-36, dated September 6, 1977.)

APPENDIX B3.3 ATTACHMENT ALCOHOL, DRUG ABUSE, AND MENTAL HEALTH ADMINISTRATION National Research Service Awards Program . Research Areas for Individual and Institutional Awards July 1978 . . . . . . Research areas are described below in which the three-Institutes of the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration will offer awards. These areas are def ined in terms of substantive and problem areas for which research manpower is needed, and examples are included of profes- sions:, disciplines, and approaches to be emphasized. Presentation of research areas is not in order of priority. . National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism The research training efforts of the National Institute-on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism are derived from the research program of the Institute which-focuses on the multiple determinants of alcoholism and on the treatment and rehabilitation of alcoholics and alcohol abusers. The research program has as its main goals the reduction of the incidence and prevalence of alcohol abuse and alcoholism, and the reduction of the morbidity and mortality associated with alcohol use, abuse and alcoholism. Research training support may be obtained-for the totality of research and disciplinary areas ranging from basic biochemical and biomedical research to psychosocial and anthropological research. At present, however, the highest priority for funding under the NRSA pro- gram is in social, behavioral, clinical, and treatment research training involving such disciplines as sociology, psychology, anthropology, Epidemiology, health economics , and behavioral genetics. The specific foci of the program are indicated below. Development of Behavior Research training is provided for the study of processes relating -to the development of alcoholism and alcohol abuse. These studies may include examination of basin biological processes; however, priority will be given to applications in the psycho-social disciplines. Of par- ticular interest at the present time are studies of genetic factors in the development of alcoholism; social factors which may influence use of alcohol, particularly in youths; and the development of alcohol problems. ~ ~ - 2. Disorders and Maladaptive Behavior ^. . . . . . The NIAAA emphasizes research training related to the problems of alcoholism and excessive alcohol use, including related medical and 218

behavior disorders. Proposals are invited for research training in the etiology, diagnosis, treatment, epidemiology, and prevention of alcoholism and alcohol-related problems. Eligible training proposals may be con- cerned with such issues as early differential diagnosis of alcoholism, both from other related diseases as well as defining better the distinc- tion between chronic heavy drinking and alcoholism itself; association between a' cohol and other disorders such as heart disease, cancer or depression; efficacy of new and established treatments for various sub- populations; fetal alcohol syndrome; occupational alcoholism; and improved prevention strategies. ~ 3. Social Issues Relating to Alcoholism and Alcohol Problems The NIAAA places high priority on minorities, youth, and women, and seeks research training applications related to these populations. Areas of interest include, for example, cultural patterns in use and abuse of alcohol, special service needs~and problems of these populations. Research training proposals may address legal, political science, and economic aspects of various social issues related to alcoholism, in addi- tion :to psychological and sociological aspects. Examples of areas for which research training support might be provided include the effects of legislation (drinking-driving laws, alcoholic beverage control laws, drinking age, etc.) on patterns and trends in occurrence of alcoholism. 4. Services Research - There is need for highly qualified researchers to develop and apply scientific methodology to problems connected-with developing and improving delivery systems for alcoholism treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention services. Encouraged are applications focused on research training in: the determination of the effectiveness of various services in meeting the needs of particular populations and communities (for example, minorities or occupational alcoholism programs ); epidemiologic techniques as applied to alcoholism service delivery systems, to elucidate, for example, the effects of social and economic factors on the utilization of services; and methods for researching needs assessment and planning approaches, organization, staffing, management, and financing of alcoholism services as factors affecting, for example, the standards and quality of care, utilization, and cost effectiveness.- National Institute on Drug Abuse 1. Development of Behavior Research training will emphasize the development of scientific expertise in behavioral pharmacology, molecular pharmacology, neuro- pharmacology, i-mmunopharmacology, and endocrine pharmacology as these . . . . 219

disciplines relate to mechanisms underlying the development of substance abuse behaviors . There is also a need to train scientific personnel for basic and applied research in the following areas: analytical chemistry, chemical synthesis, pharmacokinetics, and quantitative structure activity relationships. Additional expertise is needed in the areas of behavioral genetics and pharmacogenetics~as they relate to the addictive process. Specialists are also sought in human personality formation, psychological development, the socialization process, and their interrelationships with addictive life styles. 2. Disorders and Maladaptive Behavior There is need to develop research expertise on complex behavioral and societal factors involved in the etiology and epidemiology of drug absue and related maladaptive behavior. Emphasis will be placed on providing interdisciplinary training and training of behavioral and social scientists in experimental and field analysis of social behavior. Particular emphasis is placed on training of behavioral and social scientists who have an interest in research on substance abuse and its sequelae and analyzing life style factors in clinical and naturalistic settings. Experimental and methodological expertise is needed to develop new measures of incidence, prevalence, and usage patterns of abuse sub- stances. Training also is needed to enable scientists to assess the safety and efficacy of new pharmacological and innovative behavioral treatment modalities and to develop and assess, within both clinical and naturalistic settings, new modalities for treating drug and sub- stance~abuse behavior among various population groups. Emphasis will be given to extending research methodological skills of clinicians in the fields of pharmacology, behavioral pharmacology, and treatment of . . . .. substance abuse. 3. Social Issues Relating to Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Applications for training are encouraged with respect to variations in drug abuse problems among special population groups at risk. Emphasis will be on interdisciplinary research training for social, psychological, and medical scientists. Trained personnel are also needed to conduct research employing anthropological methods for the study of drug use and abuse in different cultures and groups. 4. Services Research Training is needed for social and behavioral scientists to design and execute evaluations of current programs of treatment or prevention. 220

National Institute of Mental Health . The research objective of NIMH is to better understand the determinants of human behavior particularly relevant to mental illness and mental health. Highly trained researchers are required to produce the new knowledge that is needed. Manpower needs in research related to mental health problems are in four general areas: (1) the processes underlying the development and variation of behavior; (2) mental disorders and maladaptive behavior; (3) social problems related to mental health; and (4) mental health services research. Support is available In these areas as they are relevant to the NIMH mission. 1. Development of Behavior As behavior is determined by biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors, proposals will be accepted for research training in disciplinary or interdisciplinary settings concerned with~these determinants. The development and maintenance of mental health through- out the entire lifespan of the individual is of concern, with special focus on childhood, adolescence, and old age. ~ - Applications concerned with such areas as behavioral genetics, psychobiological aspects of maturation, sensory and motor processes, affective and cognitive processes, and biological bases of social behavior and social organization are eligible for support. The ~nflu- ence of psychotropic drugs on these processes and the mechanisms of action are of special concern to NIMH. Proposals will be considered also in such areas as development of the brain and the central nervous system, at all levels of organization, as they relate to behavior. Proposals are also invited in the areas of social and cognitive development, perception , memory, and language, particularly as they relate to personality research. Other relevant topics include cultural norms of behavior, social structure, social interaction, socio-cultural factors of change and stress, human adaptation, socialization, family dynamics, and in general the effects of socio-cultural environment on the developmental processes of persons, families, and groups. Processes involving adaptive or "normal" behavior are as much of concern as those involving maladaptive or "abnormal" behavior. 2. Mental Disorders and Maladaptive Behavior The mission of the NIMH includes concern for both mental health and mental illness. Proposals are invited for research training in the etiology, diagnosis, psychopathology, treatment, epidemiology, and the prevention of mental disorders and maladaptive behavior in homogeneous and heterogeneous cultural settings. 221

Eligible training proposals may be concerned with organic and functional disorders involving the nervous system and behavior in gen- eral. Areas of special importance are child mental health problems, mental disorders in later life, schizophrenia, depression and suicide, psychosomatic disorders, and psychoneuroses. Applications are invited for research training to identify life events associated with risk populations and the genetics of mental disorders. Of particular inter- est is training which combines basic biological, psychological, or socio-cultural research with clinical research training in mental disorders and maladaptive behavior. Research training concerned with measurement in the community of dimensions and distribution of mental disorders in terms of incidence, prevalence, and mortality, and an understanding of the factors associated with differential distribution is encouraged. 3. Social Problems Related to Mental Health Applications are sought for research training in several social problem areas as they relate to mental health: (1) understanding crime and delinquency, individual violence, and law/mental health interactions, and evaluating community-based treatment programs for offenders; (2) understanding the relationship between the conditions of urban life, the functioning of communities and families, and the well-being and mental health of the individual; problem areas of special interest are the work situation, economic change, informal helping networks and alternative social forms; (3) understanding minority group concerns including their interest in mental health services, research on planning for the improvement of such services to minority groups, and understand- ing institutional racism and evaluating intervention programs to alleviate it; and (4) understanding the social and other conditions which encourage sexual attacks; the impact of rape on the victim and the family of the victim; evaluating the effectiveness of laws to prevent and control rape; evaluating the effectiveness of programs to assist the victim and the family of the victim, and programs to treat offenders. Training in the area of social problems research is often multi- disciplinary in nature. It covers a broad range of research problems, including basic studies of human behavior, intervention studies concerned with meeting special human needs, and studies on the overall improvement of mental health and social systems. Such problems can be addressed from the level of individual behavior and needs on the one hand, to the level of social institutions and their interactions on the other hand. 4.
