CTN Primary Care SIG

The Primary Care SIG aims to engage primary care in research, develop substance use treatment interventions relevant to community-based practice, and promote the transfer of evidence-based results from substance use research into community-based practices.  

Primary Care SIG Key Objectives

  • Make sure that CTN priorities for substance use research are informed by primary care practice 
  • Provide consultation on CTN protocol/project development to ensure compatibility of the protocol, its recruitment process, and community-based practice, if possible 
  • Link primary care practice to protocols as appropriate, including site recruitment support 

Primary Care SIG Webinars and presentations

The Primary Care SIG is led by Joe LeMaster, MD, MPH and Sebastian Tong, MD, MPH, and meets every other month on the 4th Monday of the month from 9-10am PT/12-1pm ET.
