CFP CU Conference for Interdisciplinary Drug and Alcohol Research<\/strong>
May 17th<\/sup> and 18th<\/sup> (Friday and Saturday)<\/strong> 
UCCS Main Campus in Colorado Springs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its inaugural year, the leadership of CIDAR proposes a flexible structure that welcomes participants from diverse fields and from all career levels. With flexibility and inclusion in mind, the conference will feature various ways to participate including presentations, panel discussions, roundtables, and (potentially) a poster session. The goal is to promote discussions between people from diverse disciplinary backgrounds, all focused on the state of drug and addiction research in the US. We seek expansive and diverse approaches to the subject through cultural, social, policy, therapeutic, and historical investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We invite submissions from areas including the humanities, social sciences, criminal justice, public policy, political science, psychology, and other \u201chard sciences.\u201d With the theme of \u201cAcross the Divide,\u201d this conference seeks submissions that specifically outline new research in drug studies and substance use disorders while clarifying methodological foundations. We similarly welcome research that is specifically cross-disciplinary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This conference has no registration fee.
Participants must be affiliated with the CU system.
We welcome scholars of all stripes and career levels, including undergraduates, graduate students, and trainees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAcross the Divide: Advancing Interdisciplinary Discourse on Substance Use from Arts to Sciences.\u201d<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

With the nation awash in the present opioid crisis, a crisis related to drug arrests and incarceration, and ever more complicated socio\/economic matrices related to the drug trade, there is an exigent need for new approaches to drug, alcohol, and addiction research. We propose a conference focused on contemporary approaches to substance research writ-large with the goal of cross-disciplinary discourse. In particular, we aim to create a collaborative environment in which scholars and researchers from a range of fields come together to discuss their work. Thus, the theme of this inaugural conference is \u201cAcross the Divide\u201d – aimed at bridging the gaps between disciplinary approaches and knowledge. For this inaugural meetings, submissions are limited to CU-affiliated scholars and researchers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submissions:
<\/strong>Participants must be affiliated with the CU system. Please submit abstracts of 250 words outlining your project or study. Please attempt to avoid jargon, making submissions readable to academics from a range of disciplines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
