SUMMARY:EBPS Biennial Workshop - Novel pharmacotherapies for substance use and related mental health disorders
DESCRIPTION:The organizing committee of the EBPS 2024 Workshop “Novel pharmacotherapies for substance use and related mental health disorders: From basic science to societal impact” cordially invite you to join us for the biennial workshop of the European Behavioural Pharmacology Society which takes place September 25 to 27\, 2024 at the Banff Centre for Arts & Creativity in Banff\, Alberta\, Canada. \nThis workshop will highlight cutting edge pharmacology-based interventions for substance use and related mental health disorders\, including psychedelics\, cannabinoids\, neuropeptides\, and more. Diverse panels and speakers have confirmed their participation\, including Keynotes from Drs. David Nutt\, Alex Kwan\, Margaret Haney\, and Lorenzo Leggio. \nThe workshop will also include panels consisting of experts in patient advocacy\, clinical ethics\, and regulatory frameworks\, who will provide insights into the potential (and realized) challenges to implementing these novel interventions. \nIf anyone from your team may be interested\, we have trainee travel awards due July 5th and early bird registration is through July 12th. We’re also happy to receive posters beyond the primary theme – anything related to substance use\, pharmacology\, or mental health (broadly defined) is totally welcome! We plan to select abstracts from the posters to present as ‘hot topic’ talks\, and we also have funding to provide free childcare for attendees who wish to bring their families. \nMore information: https://ebps2024.azuleon.org/welcome

SUMMARY:NASEM Report Release Webinar - Cannabis Policy Impacts Public Health and Health Equity
DESCRIPTION:Many states have been moving toward the legalization of cannabis and cannabis products\, but the public health implications of these policy changes have not been fully evaluated. An expert committee of the National Academies wrote a report to describe cannabis and cannabinoid availability in the U.S.\, assess regulatory frameworks for the cannabis industry using a health equity lens\, and describe strengths and weaknesses of medical and non-medical surveillance systems. Additionally\, it will outline recommendations to minimize societal harms and inform policy research over the next five years. \nDuring this public release webinar\, members of the committee will provide an overview of the report’s conclusions and recommendations and answer audience questions. \nFor more information and registration\, click here.
