INVEST Drug Abuse Research Fellowship
The INVEST Drug Abuse Research Fellowship combines postdoctoral research
training in the United States with professional development activities and
grant-writing guidance to form a unique program for drug abuse scientists.
Fellows may conduct their research in any aspect of the biomedical or
behavioral science of drug abuse and addiction. Previous Fellows have
conducted research in all aspects of drug abuse and addiction, from social
science to basic science, including epidemiology, prevention, treatment, and
preclinical and clinical sciences. Fellows and their mentors are encouraged
to develop jointly and seek funding for a collaborative research project to
be conducted in the Fellow’s home country. Fellows and their U.S. mentors
are part of a network of international scientists who exchange information
and collaborate on drug abuse research nationally, regionally, and globally.
What Does the Fellowship Include?
The 12-month fellowship provides –
Rigorous postdoctoral research training with a NIDA grantee at a U.S.
institution.
Professional development activities that help you establish personal
relationships with NIDA grantees and NIDA officials who are willing to
continue working with you after you return home.
A stipend of $36,000US for living and personal expenses, round-trip travel,
and a $4,000US allowance to cover the cost of health insurance and
professional development activities.
Who Is Eligible?
The requirements for INVEST applicants are –
An earned doctoral degree in medicine, public health, biomedical,
behavioral, or social sciences.
A minimum of 2 years of postdoctoral research experience, including a

biomedical or behavioral research investigating the causes, consequences,
prevention, or treatment of drug abuse and addiction.
Complete and submit your application to the NIDA International Program.
