Notre Dame computer scientists receive NSF award to reduce opioid misuse through improved nutrition
|
Although opioid users are offered medication assisted treatment (MAT), which can effectively reduce opioid misuse and addiction, diet is an important—and often overlooked—factor in opioid recovery.
