The Substance Misuse and Addiction Research Traineeship (SMART)
Description: Project Narrative A lack of diversity among investigators is a strong impediment to resolving national and global challenges related to substance misuse. Certain students face multidimensional historical and social factors that hinder access to adequate mentorship, quality instruction, focused faculty attention, and the financial support necessary to become a future substance misuse and addition scientist. The proposed program, the Substance Misuse and Addiction Research Traineeship (SMART), is a trans-disciplinary drug abuse research education program for undergraduate students dedicated to enhancing diversity in the next generation of substance misuse and addiction scientists.
