NIDA Hubert H. Humphrey Drug Use and Addiction Research Fellowship

International research and exchange collaborations contribute to advances in scientific understanding about drug use and addiction. To foster these exchanges, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) partners with the U.S. Department of State to support a unique training program for midcareer drug  use and addiction professionals. Through the combination of academic courses at a leading U.S. university and a professional affiliation with an Institute grantee, NIDA Hubert H. Humphrey (Humphrey) Drug Use and Addiction Research Fellows learn about NIDA-supported drug use and addiction research and the application of research to the development of science-based government policy and prevention and treatment programs.



In addition, NIDA facilitates meetings between fellows and grantees to discuss research funding opportunities and to help identify potential partners for cooperative research to be conducted in the fellows' home countries.



If you are a midcareer drug use and addiction professional and want to gain international experience at a premier U.S. research institution, the NIDA Humphrey Drug Use and Addiction Research Fellowship is just right for you. The fellowship will enhance your work by contributing to your understanding of the scientific basis of drug use and addiction. NIDA Humphrey Drug Use and Addiction Research Fellowship alumni and their U.S. mentors form the nucleus of a network of scientists who exchange information and collaborate on drug use and addiction research nationally, regionally, and globally.
