Groundbreaking Research from NIDA Addressing the Challenges of the Opioid Epidemic.

The 2024 ACMT Ward and Ryan Donovan Memorial Fund lecture was presented by Dr. Nora Volkow, the director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This article in an edited version of her keynote address during ACMT's 2024 Annual Scientific Meeting. During the course of her talk, Dr. Volkow discussed the historical factors contributing to the ongoing global opioid epidemic, examined the evidence behind different front-line and policy strategies used to battle the opioid epidemic, and highlighted the importance of recent cultural changes that support more deliberate screening for substance use disorders and pathways for initiating treatment of opioid use disorders in vulnerable populations. An urgent need exists to improve inclusion of social and structural determinants of health in implementation science addressing opioid use disorders, with better attention to special populations, including Native American Indians and Alaskan Natives, African Americans, those over 65years of age, and teenagers.

Conference on 'nutrition and wellbeing in Oceania'.

Oceania is currently facing a substantial challenge: to provide sustainable and ethical food systems that support nutrition and health across land and water. The Nutrition Society of Australia and the Nutrition Society of New Zealand held a joint 2023 Annual Scientific Meeting on 'Nutrition and Wellbeing in Oceania' attended by 408 delegates. This was a timely conference focussing on nutrition challenges across the Pacific, emphasising the importance of nutrition across land and water, education settings, women's health and gut health. Cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary and collaborative research was presented in a 4-day programme of keynote presentations, workshops, oral and poster sessions, breakfast and lunch symposiums and early career researcher sessions. The conference highlighted the importance of collaboration between nations to address the challenge facing nutrition and wellbeing across Oceania. A systems approach of collaboration among scientists, industry and government is vital for finding solutions to this challenge.

The American College of Medical Toxicology Annual Scientific Meeting: A Look Back and the Path Forward.

More than 20 years that have elapsed since the inaugural American College of Medical Toxicology Spring Conference in 2002. During this time, the now ACMT Annual Scientific Meeting has grown in many ways, as demonstrated by the increase in attendance and abstract submissions, and diversification of educational offerings, and partners. Most importantly, the scientific rigor and presentation of new knowledge has continued to mature, and the conference is now firmly rooted in the annual educational schedule for medical toxicologists. In anticipation of the upcoming 2025 ASM, we reflect upon the evolution and growth of ACMT's research and educational agendas, and the Annual Scientific Meeting itself.
