Dangerfield Ii DT, Heidari O, Cooper J, Allen S, Lucas GM. Motivations for opioid and stimulant use among drug using black sexual minority men: A life course perspective. Drug Alcohol Depend. 2020 Oct 1;215:108224. doi: 10.1016/j.drugalcdep.2020.108224.

Dr. Dangerfield will provide a 15-20 minute synopsis of the publication. Two respondents from different disciplines will then provide their perspectives for 5-10 minutes. Dr. Alexander Zestos (AU) will respond to this article from a Basic Sciences perspective and Dr. Jose Lucar (GW) will respond to this article from a Clinical and Population Sciences perspective. An open discussion will follow the presentations to hopefully discover opportunities for possible collaborations on future research initiatives.
