NIDA DRUG ABUSE RESEARCH COLLABORATION

描述：（申请人摘要） 北卡罗来纳州中央大学正在回应国家卫生研究院 药物滥用研究所和少数群体健康倡议研究办公室 HBCU研究科学家奖 建议的NCCU药物滥用 与维克森林大学合作的研究项目 医学，将侧重于药物与细胞相互作用的分子机制， 试图了解成瘾行为的分子相关性。 的 该计划将被安置在新的生物医学/生物技术研究 院 与NIDA和ORMH合作，NCCU将实现该计划的目标 并通过以下方式支持药物滥用研究的增长和发展： 召集了一个NCCU外部的科学家小组， 虐待研究咨询委员会：物色和招聘 被公认为成功滥用药物的经验丰富的个人 研究科学家：与科学家建立正式联系， 位于维克森林大学学院的药物滥用研究中心 医疗，距离NCCU约110英里：成本效益 组建和培训一支高素质的科学家队伍， 滥用研究在NCCU：并作为一种催化剂，以提高公众 特别是在少数民族社区中， 吸毒成瘾的公共卫生后果。

DESCRIPTION: (Applicant's Abstract) North Carolina Central University is responding to the NIH-National Institute on Drug Abuse and Office of Research on Minority Health initiative entitled HBCU Research Scientist Award. The proposed NCCU drug abuse research program in collaboration with Wake Forest University School of Medicine, will focus on molecular mechanisms of drug-cell interaction, seeking to understand the molecular correlates of addictive behavior. The program will be housed in the new Biomedical/Biotechnology Research Institute. Working with NIDA and ORMH, NCCU will address the program goals and support the growth and development of drug abuse research by: assembling a panel of scientists external to NCCU that could serve as a drug abuse research advisory committee: identifying and recruiting an experienced individual generally recognized as an accomplished drug abuse research scientist: establishing formal linkages with scientists at the drug abuse research center located at Wake Forest University School Medicine, located approximately 110 miles from NCCU: cost effective assembly and training of a high quality team of scientists to conduct drug abuse research at NCCU: and serving as a catalyst to enhance public awareness, particularly among the minority community, of the behavioral and public health consequences of drug addiction.
