Dr. Shoptaw was given the honor to present a talk, ‘Medications as Foundation for Stimulant Use Disorder Treatment: Is it Time?’, at this year’s annual Eric D. Hadar Distinguished Lecture at the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry. Since its inception in 2016, the Eric D. Hadar Distinguished Lecture series has broadened the discussion and understanding of current research findings related to substance use disorders and their available treatment options. Columbia’s Division of Substance Use Disorders is among the nation’s leading addiction psychiatry programs, according to U.S. World and News Report, and we are honored to have one of our own leading and participating in this dialogue.
