Introduction: Shedding Light on Addiction - Participant Studies & Clinical Trials

While researching information for our science news blog: Science: Shedding Light on Addiction , we were surprised at the number of clinical trials being conducted around the country. Trials and studies offer a possible alternative option for people looking for treatment but unable to afford the high cost of residential or even outpatient treatment. Studies often include a stipend for transportation, medications, therapy and follow-up. Also they will usually help the participant link up with other services in their area.


Our goal with this blog is to make timely information available, we are planning weekly updates on new and ongoing studies nationwide.
