- Description
- The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) plans to solicit proposals from qualified organizations to conduct experiments to assess neural representations of stimulus-stimulus associations in the orbitofrontal cortex and related areas, how they are deployed to control behavior, and the importance of changes in these processes to addiction. Current work in the lab has successfully modeled this in rodents. Currently we need to contract services to understand if these models apply to human orbitofrontal cortex. The contractor will employ state-of-the-art functional MRI approaches to extract neurobiological correlates of stimulus-stimulus associative learning and the deployment of these representations to control behavior in awake, behaving humans. The experiments will require MVPA analyses combined with custom olfactory testing capabilities, which together will parallel single-unit recording work done at the NIDA Intramural Research Program. NIDA anticipates the award of one fixed price contract for a period of performance of one year. The earliest NIDA will post the solicitation is 15 days from today. You will be able to access the solicitation through the FedBizOpps website (URL: http://www.fbo.gov). All information required for the submission of a proposal is contained in or accessible through the solicitation package. After NIDA issues the solicitation, responses are due in NIDA's Contracting Office within 14 days. NIDA will consider proposals submitted by any responsible offeror. This advertisement does not commit the Government to award a contract. Note 26. Based upon market research, the Government is not using the policies contained in Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, in its solicitation for the described supplies or services. However, you may identify to the Contracting Officer its interest and capability to satisfy the Government's requirement with a commercial item within 15 days of this notice.
