The NIDA Mission • To lead the Nation in bringing the power of science to bear on drug abuse and addiction, through: • support and conduct of research across a broad range of disciplines • ensuring rapid and effective dissemination and use of research results to improve prevention, treatment, and policy
NIDA Research Is Multidisciplinary Epidemiology Treatment Neuroscience Behavioral Science Risk and Resilience Prevention AIDS and Other Medical Consequences Children and Adolescents Health Disparities
NIDA FY 2005 Initiatives • Prevention • Gene/environment interactions • Drug exposure and the developing prenatal brain • Youth/adolescent interventions • Treatment Interventions • Behavioral and pharmacological approaches • Linking drug abuse services with other health care systems • Translating Research into Practice • Using science to improve providers’ knowledge and skills

Medications are an important part of treatment for individuals with substance use disorders. • Methadone-opiate abuse • Buprenorphine-opiate abuse • Naltrexone-opiate and alcohol abuse • Disulfiram (Antabuse)-alcohol abuse • Acamprosate-alcohol abuse
Behavioral counseling is a critical component of effective treatment. • Behavioral therapy remains the sole available treatment for most classes of drug addiction. • No pharmacotherapies exist for marijuana, sedatives, amphetamines, hallucinogens, inhalants. • Combination behavioral/medication therapies is key.

Treatment does not need to be voluntary to be effective. Public Health Approach -disease -treatment Public Safety Approach -illegal behavior -punish
Integrated Public Health-Public Safety Strategy Blends functions of criminal justice and treatment systems to optimize outcomes

Where Do We Go From Here?Some Research Questions to Consider • We need a “science of larger social units” • What are the components and characteristics of (integrated) treatment systems able to deliver effective interventions that can: -serve large numbers of people -be broadly adopted by different settings -be consistently implemented with fidelity -produce replicable and long-lasting effects -at a reasonable cost
