Addiction Treatment Research Interest Group (ATRIG)

ATRIG is an Incorporated Society and held its inaugural meeting at "The Long and the Short of Treatment for Mental Disorders" conference in Christchurch in July 1996. The goals of the society are:

  • To foster interest in scientific research on treatment of people with addiction related problems in New Zealand;
  • To disseminate and promote research findings related to effective treatment of people with addiction related problems in New Zealand;
  • To support the development of improved treatment services for people with addiction related problems in New Zealand.

New Zealand Treatment Research Monograph:
Alcohol, Drugs and Addiction

The Addiction Treatment Research Monograph is produced by ATRIG and contains summaries of research presentations from the annual Cutting Edge Conference.

Addiction Treatment Research News (ATRN)

The ATRN is published three times a year and provides the opportunity to write and read about current addiction treatment related research activities currently occurring in New Zealand and for pieces reflecting on the wider sphere of the international addiction treatment research literature. Regular contributions include an editorial, message from the ATRIG Chairperson, "I've Been Reading", NAC research update, Abacus update, contributions from Auckland University, and letters to the editor.

Any submissions to the Treatment Research News in the form of letters to the editor or articles are most welcome and can be sent to:

ATRN Email Discussion Group

The ATRN email discussion group is available to all financial members of ATRIG (see below) and provides a venue for discussion of any topic relevant to the aims and activities of ATRIG. Given the relatively modest membership of ATRIG the discussion group will often lie dormant for significant periods, so rather than being a discussion group which requires a member to read or sort new mail on a daily or weekly basis the ATRN discussion group is more low key and only becomes active when a member has a specific issue they wish to raise.

Membership

Membership in ATRIG entitles you to the following:

  • Three issues of the Addiction Treatment Research news via email
  • Membership in the ATRN email discussion group

The membership fee is $20 per calendar year. If you would like to become a member of ATRIG contact Lindsay Atkins or download a membership form.
