项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Substance abuse and dependence is a problem for a large proportion of psychiatric patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. The use of multiple street drugs is associated with an early onset of illness, and increased severity of symptoms, as well as poor outcome. People with schizophrenia who use drugs tend to be less compliant with medication regimes, become homeless, and have other psychosocial manifestations of their use. The Schizophrenia International Research Society (SIRS) Biennial Conference is an ideal format for discussing all issues related to substance abuse, including its underlying biology, causes and consequences. Thus, the current proposal for an R13 grant is to provide young investigators who have an interest in substance abuse in schizophrenia patients (i.e. its causes, treatments and contribution to outcome) with the opportunity to participate in these congresses and thus facilitate their future pursuit of this topic in their research. The funds will enable providing student travel awards, student participation as Rapporteurs to summarize the relevant sessions of the meeting for publications, and for providing career mentorship.

描述（由申请人提供）：滥用药物和依赖性是大量精神分裂症患者的问题。多种街头药物的使用与疾病的早期发作，症状的严重程度增加以及不良结果有关。患有精神分裂症的人使用药物的人往往不太遵守药物制度，无家可归，并具有其他心理社会的表现。精神分裂症国际研究学会（SIRS）双年展会议是讨论与药物滥用有关的所有问题的理想形式，包括其潜在的生物学，原因和后果。因此，当前对R13赠款的建议是为精神分裂症患者滥用药物滥用的年轻调查人员（即，其原因，治疗和结果的贡献）有机会参加这些国会，从而在他们的研究中促进他们对此主题的未来追求。这些资金将使提供学生旅行奖，学生作为报告者的参与，以总结出版物会议的相关会议，并提供职业指导。
