@asamorg happy to be back in person for the Annual meeting!

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@maiasz @aander1987 Thanks for seeing it. I am generally head down working and don’t really follow the media around this. I only saw your tweet because of a mutual colleague. All of my work is based on hard science, simplified to help convey the info. Data, science and math.

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@aander1987 @maiasz I have 8 hours of testimony, so they are cherry picking. The basics are that we see a more than ten fold increase in dopamine release in the Nucleus Accumbens and VTA with meth. Ten fold is roughly 1000%. Which sounds high, but this is a common biological change. Like glucose.

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@samziz @maiasz Yes, that number must be some form of inaccurate extrapolation. If you want to know what was actually stated it would be close to what is on my YouTube video. Addiction neuroscience 101. I don’t know the exact url.

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@maiasz However, your 1% number is laughable.

Our board has informed @Transition46 Dr. Kelly Clark @kellyclarkmd is ready on day one to be head of #ONDCP or #DEA. https://t.co/4lT4y2Nwah #BidenTransition

@PatrickByrne Or more appropriately, access to healthcare in all 50 states.

@iyahromm @megtirrell If someone is surprised, then they are not paying attention to the world around them. Sadly, not uncommon.

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@iyahromm @megtirrell I have also never gotten that question! My wife is a freaking machine who does it all and I am sure she has been asked when she is on the road.

What would Bill Wilson do about medication for addiction if he was alive now? My latest. Thanks @bcuban and @PatrickDoyle_35 for the inspiration. https://t.co/Lc1zozUgfB

@camdenhealth @wileyinresearch @DawnWiest Amazing work from an amazing team!

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@tomfolanmd Sorry, "...hyperbole and anger"

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@tomfolanmd None of those assertions are accurate. MJ readily primes the NAc, making it more susceptible other drugs creating an inc risk of gateway use. A European population evaluation, that controlled for tobacco, showed a stat. sig increase in CA risk. Science will always beat hyperbole.

[Corey Waller @rcwallermd]

@GilTPolitics Probably too many complete sentences.

[NEJM Catalyst @nejmcatalyst]

This Thursday: #CareDesign event with @amyleecp3 @NSmohta @rebeccaonie @TylerNorrisMDiv @toyinajayidoc @DrCHWilkins @thomashleemd @rcwallermd: https://t.co/GIlaar93nM

@modrnhealthcr I wish morality would quadruple. But, unfortunately it was mortality.

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

What the tax bill does to graduate students alone — the seed of our economic future — should be reason enough to stop this disaster. And then there is what it does to healthcare for millions. I am baffled by the GOP complicity in inflicting damage on this scale.

[Andy Slavitt @ASlavitt]

BREAKING: The bipartisan Medicaid Directors from all 50 states just issued this negative statement about Graham-Cassidy.

Big. Very unusual.

[Penn State IFC @PennStateIFC]

With the current devastation in Houston, we are pledging $0.15 for every RT this gets! Please forward this along to help out those in need!
