The IU Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center, Office of Community Outreach and Engagement focuses on reducing the cancer burden in Indiana through community engagement, research, and education. They aim to facilitate and support collaborative efforts that translate into evidence-based practices and interventions in communities, particularly for underserved populations, to decrease cancer incidence and improve cancer care outcomes across the state.
The Indiana Alcohol Research Center Pilot Project Program aims to support investigators developing research programs on alcohol use disorders (AUD) by funding pilot projects. The program focuses on awarding grants for preliminary data collection that could lead to further external funding. It particularly emphasizes research into the behavioral, biological, and genetic mechanisms affecting alcohol preference, binge-level and high-intensity drinking patterns, tolerance, and broader mechanisms of AUD and its risk factors. Proposals introducing innovative techniques with the potential to advance the field of AUD research are also encouraged. Each pilot project may receive up to $50,000 (direct costs) annually for two years.
