Addiction Seminars: The Updated Australian Guidelines for the Treatment of Alcohol Problems

Here we aim to condense into 60 minutes, in an interview and Q+A format, the key questions driving, the methods used, the main findings, the clinical implications and future directions arising out of this monumental work of collaboration of more than sixty of the nation’s most prominent figures in the field.

Prof Paul Haber will lead the panel of authors, Dr Richard Hallinan will moderate the questions from experts and participants. To round out the event, there will be two cases “From the Registrars” which will test the limits of the guidelines, from Dr Geoff Arthurson, and Dr Ricky Harjanto FRACGP, Drug Health Services in South Western Sydney Local Health District.

Please send your questions to richard.hallinan@health.nsw.gov.au to get them on the agenda in advance, or use the chat function on the evening.
