Everyday, researchers publish the results of their important work surrounding many of the issues around addiction, addiction treatment, and recovery. Unfortunately, much of this research is published in proprietary journals that may be difficult for students, policymakers, patients and caregivers to access. The Recovery Research Institute at Massachusetts General Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, regularly reviews this literature and publishes easy-to-read summaries of key research.
This featured collection provides a link to the Recovery Research Institute’s webpage that hosts these summaries as well as links to several studies that may be of particular interest to CLOUD visitors. Notably, each summary produced by the Institute includes detailed descriptions of the problem the study seeks to address, the methods used in the research, what the study found, and the implication of the findings for real world implementation. Each summary also includes a discussion of the bottom line and how the study’s findings may affect individuals and families seeking treatment and recovery, treatment professionals and the treatment system, researchers and scientists, and policymakers.
