NIH director voices support for head of addiction research institute

The opioid crisis has been a pressing issue in the United States for years, with drug overdose rates continuing to rise. In the midst of this crisis, Nora Volkow, the top addiction researcher and leader of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), has been at the forefront of efforts to address and combat addiction.

Recently, the director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Jay Bhattacharya, publicly praised Volkow and the work being done at NIDA. This endorsement comes at a time when there is uncertainty surrounding the agency and its leadership. While the Trump administration has not directly questioned Volkow’s credentials or job security, Bhattacharya’s support could indicate that her position is secure for the time being.

Speaking at the Rx and Illicit Drug Summit in Nashville, Tenn., Bhattacharya expressed his pride in Volkow and NIDA’s contributions to addressing the drug overdose crisis. This public endorsement is significant, as it highlights the importance of Volkow’s work and the role that NIDA plays in addressing addiction and substance abuse issues.

Despite the challenges and uncertainties facing NIDA, Volkow’s leadership and expertise have been instrumental in advancing research and treatment options for addiction. Her dedication to understanding the science behind addiction and developing evidence-based interventions has been widely recognized in the field.

As the opioid crisis continues to impact communities across the country, the work being done at NIDA under Volkow’s leadership remains crucial. By supporting research, education, and treatment initiatives, NIDA plays a vital role in addressing the complex issues surrounding addiction and substance abuse.
