U-M School of Nursing Associate Professor Terri Voepel-Lewis, Ph.D. RN was awarded a $1.85 million grant by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) to support a research project aimed at explaining how complex symptoms and other influences (family and environment) contribute to risky self-treatment behaviors. The study titled, “The symptom associated pathway to substance use and misuse during adolescence”, will also evaluate the potential impact of interventions meant to protect against risky behavior.
