cardiovascular disease, immune dysfunction, pathologies of lung, pancreas,
bone and muscle, alcohol-related cancers, and fetal alcohol spectrum

responsibility for providing substantive input into the planning,
development, implementation and evaluation of assigned biomedical research
in the following areas: effects of alcohol on immune function and resulting
susceptibility to infection and organ damage, alcoholic liver disease, or
biochemistry and genetics of alcohol pathology.



The NIAAA provides leadership in the national effort to reduce

health risks and benefits of alcohol consumption, prevention, and
treatment; coordinating and collaborating with other research institutes
