Brief Description
NIDA supports global research to find evidence-based solutions to the public health problems of drug abuse, addiction, and drug-related HIV/AIDS. We recognize that addiction knows no borders, and that no country can solve the problem by acting alone. Through our International Program, NIDA fosters international cooperative research and the exchange of scientific information between drug abuse researchers around the world.
