Welcome to Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Health: Current Evidence

We are very pleased to introduce Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Health: Current Evidence. This newsletter, previously known as Alcohol and Health: Current Evidence, offers summaries of and expert commentary on the latest clinically relevant research on both alcohol and other drugs. In addition to research summaries, the newsletter provides valuable teaching tools, free CME opportunities, and links to educational materials.

We look forward to bringing you a wide range of information on substance use that you can apply in your clinical teaching, practice, or research.
