The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA): Research and Communications

This ACMT National Grand Rounds webinar will have speakers from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Many medical toxicologists are also boarded in addiction medicine and/or emergency medicine and the mission and research supported by NIDA is relevant to the work of ACMT members. Speakers will describe NIDA’s mission, research, research funding priorities and opportunities, communication and dissemination efforts, clinical resources, and community engagement activities. Q&A and discussion will encourage exploration of how ACMT members can be involved with NIDA activities.
