SUMMARY:NeC-ROTAC Virtual Training - Harm Reduction Principles\, Strategies and Benefits
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Northeast and Caribbean Rural Opioid Technical Assistance Center (NeC-ROTAC) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith increasing overdose rates\, a more lethal drug supply\, and more prescription medications in many homes\, it’s important to educate a wider audience about harm reduction and what it means: essentially\, reducing the negative consequences of potentially risky behaviors. This workshop will present different definitions of harm reduction\, highlight how we all practice harm reduction in our lives\, and explain how harm reduction strategies are implemented in different settings\, with a focus on rural communities. It will also address community concerns and hesitations about harm reduction\, ways to reduce the harms of stigma surrounding drug use\, and opportunities to build bridges between harm reduction and treatment for people with substance use disorders. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Susan Stellin\, MPH \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information and registration\, click here.

SUMMARY:I4SUD Webinar - Xylazine: Where are the Market Gaps?
DESCRIPTION:The veterinary tranquilizer xylazine is being associated with a rising count of overdose fatalities across the country amidst the ongoing crisis of drug addiction and overdose. Persons are often exposed to xylazine unintentionally through adulterated heroin/fentanyl products. Data on this critical public health threat are just emerging and suggest that xylazine exposure changes the experience of fentanyl and may lead to medical consequences such as skin ulcers. There exist pressing gaps in the surveillance and medical treatment of xylazine\, whichKelly E. Dunn\, Ph.D.\, M.B.A. (at DrKellyDunn) will explore in this webinar\, focusing on areas where inventive solutions are urgently required. \nAfter Dr. Dunn’s talk\, Dr. Supriya Munshaw will discuss the I4SUD program and how it can help researchers bring their inventive solutions to market. \nFor registration\, click here! \n

SUMMARY:GSAPP Webinar - Opioid Use within the Affectional and Gender Diverse Populations (LGBTQ+)
DESCRIPTION:Opioid use disorder has reached an alarming rate in the United States.  As more and more people struggle with opioids\, it is important for behavioral healthcare workers to understand how to best support people in need; specifically\, members that identify within the affectional and gender diverse community.  Members of this community are disproportionately affected by substance use disorders\, inclusive of the opioid epidemic.  This presentation will highlight the impact that opioid use disorder has on sexual and gender diverse populations\, best practices\, trauma-informed care\, and behavioral health integration into primary care.  \nLive Zoom Webinar \nInstructor: Anthony Zazzarino\, PhD

SUMMARY:SSW Webinar - Medical and Legal Marijuana in NJ: Practice and Policy Issues
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this interactive webinar is to identify the changes that have occurred in the NJ Medical Marijuana Program. The history of marijuana legalization and major events that have shaped this history are discussed. Known scientific research on the benefits of medical marijuana and the risks associated with marijuana usage are covered\, as well as the continued barriers to better scientific research on this topic. Interactive exercises are incorporated in order to have participants analyze child custody issues for clients who are on the NJ medical marijuana program. Other exercises include the participants discussing how treatment is impacted by medical marijuana and participants will analyze under what conditions there would be a “duty to report” a coworker on medical marijuana. \n\n\n\nInstructor: \nGlenn Duncan\, LPC\, LCADC\, CCS\, ACS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation: \nLive Interactive Online Webinar\n\n\n\nFor registration\, click here.

SUMMARY:CCNP Webinar with Dr. Peter Manza (NIAAA) - "Dopamine kinetics and brain function: insights from simultaneous PET-fMRI"
DESCRIPTION:The addictiveness of stimulant drugs such as methylphenidate (MP) depends crucially on how fast they raise dopamine in the brain. Yet the brain circuits underlying the rate dependency to drug reward have not been resolved. We used simultaneous PET-fMRI to link dynamic changes in brain dopamine signaling\, functional brain activity/connectivity\, and the self-reported experience of ‘high’ in 20 healthy adults receiving MP at different speeds: slow (oral 60mg) and fast (intravenous-IV 0.25mg/kg) doses in a double-blind\, counterbalanced\, placebo-controlled study. We estimated speed of striatal dopamine increases to oral and IV MP and then tested where brain activity/connectivity was associated with slow and fast dopamine kinetics. The two administrations produced dramatically different effects on brain functional activation and connectivity despite a comparable overall magnitude of dopamine increases. These data demonstrate how fast dopamine increases generate unique effects on brain function that have relevance for the addictive potential of drugs. \nPresenter: Peter Manza\nNational Institute oN Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA)\nNational Institute of Health \nLocation/Logistics \n\nWednesday\, February 7\, 10-11am EST\nZoom link: https://princeton.zoom.us/j/6397147065\n\nAbstracts for previous talks are posted on the CCNP website: ccnp.princeton.edu. A list of upcoming seminars\, job announcements\, and other info about CCNP are available there as well.
