Addiction Medicine for Non-Specialists is a case-based CME course designed to guide non-specialists in recognition, evaluation, treatment, and follow-up of patients with substance use disorders. Led by Antoine Douaihy, MD, experienced practitioners cover substances used — alcohol, opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, tobacco/nicotine, cannabis — and outline how the non-specialist can help their patient stop using drugs, maintain a drug-free lifestyle, and function in family and in society. Treatment strategies discussed include pharmacological, cognitive-behavioral, and a combination of the two.

I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram. But I know this much, judging by most people I talk to, especially crypto investors, if Telegram ever went public, people would gobble it up. I know I would. I’m waiting for it. So is Sergei Sergienko, who claims he owns $800,000 of Telegram’s pre-initial coin offering (ICO) tokens. “If Telegram does a SPAC IPO, there would be demand for this issue. It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,” he says.
