Abstract

Dissemination Core Abstract The Vanderbilt AUD Research and Education Center (VAREC) Dissemination Core will utilize innovative approaches to engage the public to destigmatize discussion of alcohol use disorder (AUD) and increase understanding of the organ-based nature of this disorder. One approach will include a near-peer mentoring program with area and rural high school students. The core will also provide virtual and in-person short courses to the national AUD research community to increase facility with modern cutting-edge neuroscience tools to reduce barriers to utilizing these technologies to advance alcohol research.
