Description
Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) by the National Institute on Drug Abuse seeks to facilitate the entry of both newly independent and early career investigators to the area of drug abuse research on HIV/AIDS.

Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Small Research Grant (R03) award mechanism.
