Full Description
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) invites cooperative agreement applications (U01) from single institutions or consortia of institutions to conduct research in the areas of Alcoholic Hepatitis (AH). The major goal of this research initiative is to expedite the translation of emerging findings that could advance the development of new or existing treatments for AH. A close collaboration between basic scientists and clinicians to further improve the understanding of the mechanisms underlying AH, and translate that knowledge into novel therapies is essential for this research activity. This initiative is specifically directed at AH and not at alcoholic fibrosis/cirrhosis and/or complications of portal hypertension.
