<h2>Consortia and Centers</h2>
<div><p><strong><a href="https://arg.org/">Epidemiology of Alcohol Problems: Alcohol-Related Disparities Research Center</a> (<a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/search/m4QktpATSkSiw8n-zSWdJQ/projects?shared=true">P50AA005595</a>)</strong></p>
<p>The Alcohol Research Group's Alcohol Research Center has contributed major conceptual and methodological advances for over 40 years. The Center studies the complex interactions between drinking patterns across the life-course, demographic characteristics, sociocultural and drinking contexts, community and policy factors, and alcohol-related problem and services outcomes, both in the general population and with attention to high-risk groups.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://prev.org/">Environmental Approaches to Prevention Alcohol Research Center</a> (<a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/search/IknN5MsrfEe7WK_hcs0Q5Q/projects?shared=true">P60AA006282</a>)</strong></p>
<p>The Prevention Research Center's long-running Alcohol Research Center takes a multidisciplinary approach to prevention research that emphasizes integration across theories from the biological to the behavioral and social sciences to enhance understanding of the causal impacts of drinking environments on drinking patterns and problems. Over the past four decades the Center has led research into the development of community-based approaches to the prevention of alcohol abuse and related problems, focused upon assessments of the impacts of local, state and national alcohol policies on alcohol sales and population outcomes related to use (e.g., motor vehicle crashes and violence), and developed social ecological models of youth and adult use and problems that elucidate the impacts of environmental conditions on youth, young adult, and adult problems related to alcohol. &nbsp;These contributions have directed research toward the fundamental contributions that alcohol and other drug environments make to population and individual risks for heavy alcohol use, abuse, problems and alcohol use disorders.</p>

<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<div><p><strong><em>Whom should I contact within DEPR about my research proposal?</em></strong></p>
<p>Answer: &nbsp;A list of program officers and their areas of research focus appears in the&nbsp;<a href="#our-staff">next section</a>. NIH's <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/matchmaker">Matchmaker tool in RePORTER</a> can also help you determine which program officer you might want to reach out to. The best way to contact a program officer whose interest aligns with your own is through email. Alternatively, if you would like to speak by phone, please indicate this in an email and a program officer will contact you soon thereafter.&nbsp;Having a clear understanding of <a href="https://nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2023/09/06/understanding-what-program-officials-can-and-cant-do-for-you/">what program officers can and cant do for you</a> will help you make the most of your interactions.</p>
<p><strong><em>Does my research idea align with the mission and priorities of DEPR and NIAAA?</em></strong></p>
<p>Answer: Applicants are encouraged to review NIAAAs <a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/our-work/mission-statement">mission statement</a>, <a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/grants-funding/how-apply-grant/niaaa-statement-research-priorities-and-procedures">research priorities and procedures</a>, and <a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/strategic-plan">Strategic Plan</a>. Contact a program officer, either from the&nbsp;<a href="#our-staff">list in the next section</a>&nbsp;or the scientific/research contact(s) listed in a particular NOFO to discuss your research interests&nbsp;<strong>before</strong>&nbsp;preparing your application. This will help you determine whether your proposal is of potential interest to NIAAA and will help you in preparing your grant application.</p>
<p><strong><em>What is the process for applying for funding?</em></strong></p>
<p>Answer: Application instructions appear in the NOFO. Two NIH infographics provide an overview on <a href="https://researchtraining.nih.gov/career-path">Funding Programs by Career Stage</a> and <a href="https://public.csr.nih.gov/sites/default/files/2022-06/CSR_ResourceInfographic_v21.pdf">Resources and Programs for NIH Grant Applicants</a>. Detailed guidance, instructions, and forms are provided through the NIH Office of Extramural Researchs&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/how-to-apply-application-guide.htm">How to Apply Application Guide</a>. Additional information on the NIH grant process is available at&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/grant_basics.htm">Grants Basics</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/grants_process.htm">Grants Process Overview</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/policy/new_investigators/index.htm">New and Early State Investigator Policies</a>, and&nbsp;<a href="https://public.csr.nih.gov/ApplicantResources/Pages/default.aspx">Center for Scientific Reviews Applicant Resources</a>.&nbsp;NIH <a href="https://grants.nih.gov/policy/foreign-interference/requirements-for-disclosure">requires the disclosure</a> of all sources of research support, foreign components, and financial conflicts of interest for senior/key personnel on research applications and awards.</p>

<p><strong><em>Do you think my grant will get funded?</em></strong></p>
<p>Answer:&nbsp;<a href="/grant-funding/management-reporting/funding-procedures">Funding for research grants</a>&nbsp;is highly competitive. The first step to funding is to achieve an excellent score in peer review. For applications with top scores, other factors enter funding decisions as well, such as program priorities, portfolio balance, and availability of funds. Given current budget constraints, when preparing an application give careful consideration to the budget you are proposing. See&nbsp;<a href="/about-niaaa/our-funding">NIAAA Funding</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/grant-funding/management-reporting/funding-procedures">NIAAA Funding Procedures</a>, and the&nbsp;<a href="/grant-funding/management-reporting/funding-curves">NIAAA Success Rate History and Funding Curves</a>.

<div><h2>Primary Areas of Research</h2>
<p>DEPR supports a wide range of epidemiologic and prevention research on alcohol-related behaviors and outcomes, as well as studies to advance the tools and methods available to conduct such research. Prospective grant applicants are urged to consult with a program officer (<a href="#our-staff">see above</a>) early in the process of developing an application to determine the prospects that a given project is consistent with the mission and research priorities of NIAAA and DEPR.</p>
<h2>Alcohol Policy Information System</h2>
<p>The&nbsp;<a href="http://alcoholpolicy.niaaa.nih.gov/">Alcohol Policy Information System</a>&nbsp;(APIS) is an online data resource that provides authoritative, detailed, and comparable information on alcohol-related policies at the state and federal levels in the United States based on primary legal research on the statutes and regulations. APIS was developed by DEPR to facilitate research on the effects and effectiveness of alcohol-related public policies. APIS provides detailed coverage, including exact effective dates and legal citations, for 36 specific policy topics in 10 categories. For every policy topic, APIS provides detailed comparison tables showing both up-to-date policy information and policy changes over time with exact effective dates. APIS also provides descriptive overviews, maps and charts, summaries of relevant federal law, and detailed explanatory notes.&nbsp;APIS also covers laws and regulations addressing cultivation, sale, and use of recreational (i.e., non-medical) cannabis in states that have legalized these activities. Special coverage is also provided of state policies affecting alcohol availability adopted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
<h2>Surveillance Reports and Epidemiologic Resources</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/surveillance-reports">Surveillance Reports</a> periodically examine trends in apparent alcohol consumption, underage drinking among youth ages 1220 years, and liver cirrhosis mortality in the United States. <a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/research/us-alcohol-epidemiologic-data-reference-manuals">Alcohol Epidemiologic Data Reference Manuals</a> are statistical compendia of alcohol-related data useful to researchers and others interested in alcohol problems. The <a href="https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/research/alcohol-epidemiologic-data-directory-2022">Alcohol Epidemiologic Data Directory</a> provides a listing of surveys and other relevant data suitable for epidemiologic research on alcohol. Most data sets described in this document are national in scope. In some cases, however, select specialized data sets may be included. Information on the availability of and access to the data sets is provided.<br>
