The College on Problems of Drug Dependence (CPDD) will hold it’s 85th Annual Scientific Meeting in Denver, CO from June 17 through June 21. The Annual Scientific Meeting provides a forum for scientists around the world to share findings, discuss innovations, and further develop treatment solutions to addictive disorders.
The event will kick off with the 15th annual InWomen’s Conference on Friday, June 16. Learn more about the InWomen’s conference, including registration, abstract submission, and more.
RTI will be presenting throughout the CPDD scientific meeting on equity, predictive measures, trends in use patterns, and more. View the list of RTI workshop, symposium, and poster presentations below, and learn more about RTI’s substance use research.
RTI Workshop and Symposium Presentations
Workshop – Epidemiology and Public Health Research Methods
Saturday, June 17 | 3:00-4:30PM | Grand Ballroom II
Chair: Howard Chilcoat
Co-Chair: Maria Parker
Speakers: Jamie Humphrey, Richard Sadler, Erik Nelson
This year’s annual CPDD Epidemiology and Public Health Research Methods workshop will focus on geospatial analytical approaches of interest to those conducting epidemiologic, prevention, and clinical research in the field of substance use and related disorders. Jamie Humphrey will discuss spatial heterogeneity in county-level racial residential segregation and overdose mortality rates of opioids, synthetic opioids, and psychostimulants with abuse potential. Using multiscale geographically weighted regression models, spatially-explicit measures of racial residential segregation, and smoothed overdose mortality rates, this presentation will explore the presence and scale of spatial heterogeneity in the relationship between structural racism and three overdose mortality rates in US counties, 2020: any opioids, synthetic opioids, and psychostimulants with abuse potential.
Mini-Symposium – From Initiation to Addiction: A Measure of the Full Range of Involvement for Opioids, Cannabis, and Alcohol
Tuesday, June 20 | 2:45-3:45PM | Grand Ballroom I
Chair: Ty Ridenour
Co-Chair: Lissette Saavedra
Speakers: Barrett Montgomery, Alexandra Tonigan, Ty Ridenour
This mini symposium will present an innovative measure of the full developmental continuum of substance use (SU) involvement from pre-initiation through physiological dependence onto which numerous other SU measures could be mapped. This measure could help delineate which stages of progression from earlier to later involvement are impacted by specific environmental risks, genetic mechanisms, and underlying neurophysiology as well as when and for whom prevention and treatment programs are most impactful.
