Field-Deployable Tools for Quantifying Exposures to Psychosocial Stress and to Addictive Substances for Studies of Health and Disease (U01)
RFA-DA-07-005
Expiration Date: December 23, 2006
This initiative addresses barriers to personal exposure assessment by fostering the development, improvement and/or adaptation, and validation of measurement technologies which, by the end of the funding period, will be field-deployable tools (rather than laboratory-based prototypes) that detect personal exposure to psychosocial stress and/or addictive substances (licit and illicit). This initiative will promote the measurement of exposure with maximal precision, quantification, and reliability with a high degree of temporal (acute or chronic) and spatial resolution for application in large-scale studies of human health and disease.
