Emergency Department Research Meeting: Advancing ED-Initiated Buprenorphine.

The NIDA CCTN convened stakeholders, experts, and federal staff to discuss and identify research and other efforts needed to continue to improve care for people with opioid use disorder and other substance use disorders in emergency settings.
