(These are my rough notes which I hope give an idea of the depth and breadth of research and presentation at this ISAM conference. For those interested i would hope you would go to the sources and authorities in this field. Dr. El-Guebaly is one of the truly great leaders in the field of addiction medicine. His presentation was packed with information. He has slides rich in detail as well. I only here caught a part of the whole. His research papers are superb and I recommend to anyone reading these his depth analysis of current and often very thought provoking aspects of addiction medicine - W.Hay)
