Molecules, Mechanisms and Meanings – New Frontiers in Addiction Management

Join Dr Lisa Shelley as we explore the cutting edge of medical addiction care—beyond conventional pharmacotherapy and harm minimisation. This seminar investigates new clinical tools, emerging neurobiological insights, and holistic strategies to treat addiction in complex patients. The focus will be on empowering clinicians with evidence-based techniques and restoring hope through effective, integrated care.

This is ideal for…

• GPs, psychiatrists, psychologists, and allied health clinicians

• Professionals working in primary care, mental health, pain, or addiction

• Clinicians who want to sharpen their skills, expand their knowledge, and bring a hopeful, evidence-based message to patient care

By the end of each seminar, participants will be able to…

• Recognise the emerging clinical frontiers in addiction or persistent pain

• Communicate these concepts clearly and compassionately to patients

• Apply new biological, psychological, and procedural interventions

• Reflect on the role of hope, narrative, and meaning in recovery
