Description
This opportunity invites applications for the renewal of Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Research Project Sites as part of the ABCD-Extended (ABCD-E) Study. The goal is to continue following the existing cohort into young adulthood, a critical period for the emergence of substance use disorders, mental health issues, chronic diseases, and other health conditions. The ABCD-E study is structured as a consortium with three main components: (1) linked Research Project Sites, (2) a central Data Analysis, Informatics, and Resource Center, and (3) a Coordinating Center. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) runs in parallel with a companion NOFO for the two coordinating centers. Successful applicants will collaborate closely with NIH scientific staff and other funded centers to ensure integrated and high-impact research.
