NIDA Animal Genomics Program
Funds genomic work in animals on what makes addiction start, escalate, persist and relapse — any kind of genetic variant.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse funds this to find the genetic, genomic and epigenetic variants underneath addiction, using animal models.
Three things count as in scope. Phenotypes tied to addictive behaviour or to vulnerability at a particular stage of the substance use disorder trajectory — first use, escalation, tolerance, dependence, loss of control, abstinence, relapse, recovery. Behav…
Genetic, genomic and epigenetic variants underlying addiction phenotypes in animal models — stages of the substance use disorder trajectory, associated behaviours such as impulsivity and novelty seeking, and genetically correlated comorbidities. Any variant type, with multi-omics, gene network and functional approaches encouraged.
