Emerging problems in drug and alcohol use: Current Problems & Future Solutions

Entitled Emerging Problems in drug and alcohol use: Current Problems & Future Solutions, the NDARC Annual Research Symposium will showcase NDARC research, present latest results from some of our landmark studies and translate the results for clinicians and policy makers. As well as the keynote presentation the program will include results from studies looking at methamphetamine trends in Australia and early intervention and treatment and will close with a discussion panel on ice.

Other sessions include alcohol use from pregnancy to adolescence; and evaluation of heroin treatments.

There will be five breakout sessions giving delegates a choice of workshops and short presentations on suicide risk assessment and prevention; cannabis use interventions; mental health and young people; and pharmaceutical opioids.

We will have 40 posters of our latest research on display and our popular fie minute poster presentation session will focus on interventions for marginalised and high risk populations.
