From a Diversity Travel Scholar
“ In addition to the formal sessions, the informal exchanges, whether between presentations or during networking events, fostered a sense of community and shared purpose. It was energizing to be part of a space where collaboration and innovation are at the forefront, and where mentorship and knowledge-sharing are so openly embraced. The conference was a professional milestone that has directly shaped how I plan to conduct research, pursue collaborations, and grow within the field of addiction medicine.”
