Aim: The Pharmacotherapies for Alcohol and Substance Abuse (PASA) consortium is funded by the Alcohol and Substance Abuse Disorders Research Program.  The goal of the PASA consortium is to fund study applications for developing new medications that can be brought to therapeutic use to improve treatment outcomes for alcohol and substance use disorders (ASUD), especially as related to post-traumatic  stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI).

The protocol for the first study will be developed as part of the planning grant and will be considered for funding and implementation by the PASA Consortium.
  • Request for Application (RFA) #4b: Full study implementation awards for the conduct of proof-of-principle basic research to determine which compounds are most appropriate for human research trials.
 
Funding: Maximum USD $150’000
