The Lisbon Addictions conference

The First European conference on addictive behaviours and dependencies will be held in Lisbon on 23–25 September 2015.

This comprehensive and multi-disciplinary event will showcase leading European addiction research in the specialist areas of illicit drugs, alcohol, tobacco, gambling and other addictive behaviours. It will address new challenges and cover developing fields such as new psychoactive substances, online sales and gambling, cannabis legalisation and alcohol pricing.

This conference will provide a unique networking opportunity for researchers, practitioners and policy experts across countries and disciplines to discuss latest findings on the prevention, treatment and control of addiction. It is the ideal venue to forge collaborative partnerships and explore funding opportunities.

This conference is jointly organised by the Portuguese General Directorate for Intervention on Addictive Behaviours and Dependencies (SICAD), the journal Addiction, the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) and the International Society of Addiction Journal Editors (ISAJE).
