We are delighted to welcome Nora D. Volkow, MD, Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), who will open the meeting with the keynote Donovan Lecture: “Groundbreaking Research from NIDA Addressing the Challenges of the Opioid Epidemic.”
Born in Mexico, Dr. Volkow received her medical degree from the National University of Mexico, where she was also awarded the Robins Award for the best medical student of her generation, and then completed her psychiatric residency at New York University. She received a Laughlin Fellowship from the American College of Psychiatrists while at NYU.
Professionally, Dr. Volkow has been a part of Brookhaven National Laboratory’s Department of Energy. She held a number of leadership positions there including Director of Nuclear Medicine, Chairman of the Medical Department, and Associate Laboratory Director for Life Sciences. She was also a professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the State Univerisity of New York at Stony Brook.
Dr. Volkow’s career has been marked by instrumental, pioneering research. She utilized brain imaging to investigate how substance use affects brain function, particularly in relation to the dopamine system and how its changes impact other regions of the brain in patients with substance use disorder. She has published over 800 peer-reviewed articles, written more than 100 book chapters, co-edited “Neuroscience in the 21st Century” and edited four books on brain imaging for mental and substance use disorders.
