International Drug Abuse Graduate Research Training Fellowships

The International Program coordinates National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) collaborative activities with scientists and government agencies in other countries and with international organizations. NIDA is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the principal biomedical and behavioral research agency of the U.S. Government. NIH is a component of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) International Program supports a variety of training fellowships and research exchanges for all levels of scientists interested in drug abuse research.

Predoctoral Training

Fogarty International Clinical Research Scholars (FICRS) Program provides graduate-level students with a 1-year mentored clinical research training experience at top-ranked, NIH-funded research centers in developing countries. U.S. students apply through the FICRS support center; non-U.S. students are partnered with the U.S. scholars and must apply directly to one of the FICRS sites. (NIDA is one of several National Institutes of Health Institutes and Centers participating in this program.)

Midcareer Training

NIDA Hubert H. Humphrey Drug Abuse Research Fellowship provides a 10-month, midcareer, nondegree fellowship for drug abuse professionals from eligible low- and middle-income countries to study and work with professionals in the United States. Fellows learn about NIDA-supported drug abuse research and the application of research to the development of science-based government policy and prevention and treatment programs.

Senior Researcher Opportunities

Distinguished International Scientist Collaboration Award (DISCA) supports professional exchange visits for drug abuse researchers from other countries and NIDA-supported scientists. If the project would best be conducted in the United States, international drug abuse researchers should apply for a DISCA award to visit their U.S. partners.

Distinguished International Scientist Collaboration Award for U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents (USDISCA) supports professional exchange visits for drug abuse researchers from other countries and NIDA-supported scientists. If the project would best be conducted outside the United States, NIDA grantees should apply for a USDISCA award to visit their partner’s home country.
