CRISM CANADA

Funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), CRISM (Canadian Research Initiative in Substance Misuse) provides a Canada-wide research network in the field of substance misuse, where members work together to generate the knowledge base necessary to improve current addiction treatment paradigms.

CRISM was designed to facilitate communication and collaboration among addiction service providers, researchers, and policy-makers. The five regional CRISM Nodes, in BC, the Prairies, Ontario, Quebec, and the Atlantic region, began their operations in 2015.

CRISM ATLANTIC NODE

The Atlantic Node contributes to CRISM with projects that accelerate the transfer of scientific knowledge towards the development of new treatments, including pharmaceutical approaches and psychological interventions for people who use substances. The Atlantic node spans and connects researchers, ptractitioners, and stakeholder groups in the provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Prince Edward Island.
