Updates in Addiction Medicine: Overdose Reduction, Equity, and Innovations in Care Delivery

The twin crises of addiction and overdose remain headline news, with a growing toll in lives lost and ruined. In this Medical Grand Rounds presentation, three of our faculty experts in addiction medicine will describe ongoing efforts to address these crises, the disproportionate toll that addiction poses to marginalized populations, innovative new approaches, and ongoing challenges.
