    Principal Investigator(s): LEBOWITZ, MATTHEW

    Institution: COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY HEALTH SCIENCES

    FOA Number: PA-16-193

    Abstract

    This Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) will prepare the candidate to become an interdisciplinary ELSI researcher conducting high-impact, independently funded research exploring the impact of genetic and other biological explanations for addictions and other psychiatric disorders on attitudes and beliefs about health and identity. The research will examine how genetic attributions for addiction relate to beliefs about individual agency and treatment effectiveness among people with addictive disorders and clinicians who treat them. Results will inform future studies relevant to clinical practice as well as public education campaigns and policy.
