The NIDA COEs for 2007 will be located at Creighton University School of Medicine, Omaha, Nebraska; the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in collaboration with Drexel University College of Medicine; the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences; and the Massachusetts Consortium of Medical Schools, including the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, and Harvard Medical School/Cambridge Health Alliance. The NIDA COEs will focus on a variety of areas, including prescription drug abuse, methamphetamine abuse and addiction, co morbid substance abuse and mental illness, and other issues related to drug abuse.
