This web page contains several lists of special journal issues that contain articles relevant to the understanding issues in Drug and Alcohol Dependence. These Journal Issues were collected over the last 5-7 years to serve as reference materials for graduate students enrolled in courses in dedication to this area. We are in an interesting time of information gathering as several journals have become more or less review journals. That is, they cover a select area such as ADHD and Drug Abuse which contains several review articles by experts in the field. These resources have been important to keep abreast of what’s new.
In addition to these journal issues I have put together a list of tutorials and will add additional information that can help students navigate areas covered that are not familiar to them. To access this information one needs to be a student at VCU and have access to the Library as all information is linked to the Internet and/or the ejournal collection.
