Synopsis:
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to provide support for research Centers that (1) conduct drug abuse and addiction research in any area of NIDAs mission, (2) have outstanding innovative
science, (3) are multidisciplinary, thematically integrated, synergistic, and (4) serve as national resource
(s) to provide educational and outreach activities to drug abuse research communities, educational organizations, the general public, and policy makers in the NIDA research fields. It is expected that a Center will
transform knowledge in the sciences it is studying. Incremental work should not be the focus of Center
activities; rather, new and creative directions are required. The P50 Center of Excellence is expected to
