2/5 The Cumulative Risk of Substance Exposure and Early Life Adversity on Child Health Development and Outcomes Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA AVERA MCKENNAN ELLIOTT, AMY J Sioux Falls, SD 2019
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HEALthy BCD) (Collaborative R34 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-19-029
Summary:

Despite increased efforts to understand the neurodevelopmental sequelae of in utero opioid and other substance exposure on long-term behavioral, cognitive, and societal outcomes, important questions remain, specifically, 1) How is brain growth disrupted by fetal substance and related pre- and post-natal exposures? and 2) How are these disrupted growth patterns causally related to later cognitive and behavioral outcomes? This project seeks to formulate an approach to addressing these key questions and decipher the individual and cumulative effect of these intertwined pre- and post-natal exposures on child neurodevelopment. First, researchers will address the legal, ethical, and mother-child care and support concerns implicit in this study. Next, they will integrate across our areas of neuroimaging expertise to develop, implement, and harmonize a multi-modal MRI and EEG protocol to assess maturing brain structure, function, and connectivity. Finally, researchers will develop and test advanced statistical approaches to model and analyze this multidimensional and longitudinal data.

2/6 Planning for the HEALthy Early Development Study Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA EMORY UNIVERSITY COLES, CLAIRE D (contact); KABLE, JULIE A Atlanta, GA 2019
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HEALthy BCD) (Collaborative R34 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-19-029
Summary:

The Planning for the HEALthy Early Development Study will contribute to the design and recommended protocol for a future large-scale, multi-site research study to prospectively examine human brain, cognitive, behavioral, social, and emotional development of children beginning prenatally through ages 9–10 and to determine the impact of maternal pre- and postnatal substance use on short- and long-term development of children. The planning study will link investigators across 6 research sites who have complementary experience and expertise in the areas that are essential to designing the study. Planning activities will be accomplished using a coordinated set of 10 working groups. By the end of the planning phase, the 6 consortium sites will have produced and tested a recommended protocol for the future multi-site study and will have established feasibility of carrying out the study protocol at each of the 6 linked sites.

20/24 The Healthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT & ST AGRIC COLLEGE POTTER, ALEXANDRA S (contact); GARAVAN, HUGH P Burlington, VT 2021
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) will establish a normative template of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life. All sites in the HBCD-NC will carry out a common research protocol and will assemble and distribute a comprehensive and well curated research dataset to the scientific community at large. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. The majority of participants will be recruited in the second trimester of pregnancy, with a smaller subset recruited at birth, and followed for the first decade of life. The University of Vermont study site will recruit mother-infant dyads from a rural area in Vermont, a state in which nearly one-third of neonatal hospitalizations are for neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS).

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) will establish a normative model of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life. All sites in the HBCD-NC will carry out a common research protocol and will assemble and distribute a comprehensive research dataset to the scientific community. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. Most participants will be recruited in the second trimester of pregnancy, with a smaller subset recruited at birth, and followed for the first 10 years of life. This study will take place at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, where researchers will have access to a diverse group of people, including women with criminal justice involvement.
