Grant and Funding Opportunity Announcements
NIDA and the NIAAA plan to publish an RFA titled “Social Neuroscience” in October 2005. From the announcement:
“Social neuroscience seeks to explain social behavior (i.e., behavior influenced by or occurring in the presence of others) in terms of: [1] the information processing mechanisms that motivate and guide social behavior; and [2] the neurobiological mechanisms (genetic, hormonal, biochemical, physiological) that underlie social behavior. The social neuroscience perspective (and related areas of neuro- and behavioral economics) is an emerging framework that is being applied to important aspects of social behavior and experience including attraction, altruism, aggression, affiliation, attachment, attitudes, identification, cooperation, competition, emotion, motivation, empathy, sexuality, communication, dominance, persuasion, trust, obedience and nurturance.”
