We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Subjective Response and Self-Administration of Alcohol in the Human Lab @ University of California Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Both animal and human models of alcoholism etiology have focused on biobehavioral response to alcohol as a potential marker of alcoholism risk vulnerability and disease progression. Alcoholism has been conceptualized in neurobiological models as a transition from positive reinforcement (i.e., drinking to feel good) to negative reinforcement (i.e., drinking not to feel bad or to feel normal), representing a cycl of progressive neurobiological dysregulation. Alcohol administration studies in the human laboratory allow for the translation of preclinical theory to clinical populations through examination of the subjective response to alcohol (comprising stimulation, sedation and tension relieving dimensions) at different levels of drinking status (i.e. heavy drinking or alcohol dependent groups). To date, no studies have used alcohol administration paradigms to translate neurobiological models of alcoholism etiology to clinical populations. The objective of this NRSA application is to foster my development as a clinical neuroscientist focusing on alcoholism through the investigation of well-established neurobiological theories of alcoholism etiology in the human laboratory. To do so, this study combines traditional alcohol challenge and progressive ratio self-administration methodologies to elucidate the relationship between subjective response to alcohol and one's willingness to work for alcohol. In order to model the transition from positively to negatively reinforced alcohol use, two groups (ntotal = 82) will be recruited, a group of non-dependent heavy drinkers and a group of alcohol dependent individuals. The present study extends the alcoholism literature through testing neurobiologically informed hypotheses about the moderating role of drinking status on subjective response to alcohol in the lab and the relationship between subjective response and self-administration of additional alcohol ad lib.
