Abstract
This article is part of a Festschrift commemorating the 50th anniversary of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). Established in 1970, first as part of the National Institute of Mental Health and later as an independent institute of the National Institutes of Health, NIAAA today is the world's largest funding agency for alcohol research. In addition to its own intramural research program, NIAAA supports the entire spectrum of innovative basic, translational, and clinical research to advance the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of alcohol use disorder and alcohol-related problems. To celebrate the anniversary, NIAAA hosted a 2-day symposium, "Alcohol Across the Lifespan: 50 Years of Evidence-Based Diagnosis, Prevention, and Treatment Research," devoted to key topics within the field of alcohol research. This article is based on Dr. Mason's presentation at the event. NIAAA Director George F. Koob, Ph.D., serves as editor of the Festschrift.
本文是纪念美国国家酒精滥用和酒精中毒研究所(NIAAA)成立50周年纪念活动的一部分。NIAAA成立于1970年,最初是国家精神卫生研究所的一部分,后来成为国家卫生研究所的一个独立研究所,今天是世界上最大的酒精研究资助机构。除了自己的内部研究项目外,NIAAA还支持所有创新的基础、转化和临床研究,以推进酒精使用障碍和酒精相关问题的诊断、预防和治疗。为了庆祝周年纪念日,NIAAA举办了为期两天的研讨会,“酒精在生命中的作用:50年的循证诊断、预防和治疗研究”,致力于酒精研究领域的关键话题。这篇文章是根据梅森博士在会议上的发言写成的。NIAAA主任George F. Koob博士担任该杂志的编辑。
