Abstract
While the societal burden of addiction is globally visible, the problems vary regionally as do the scientific, health care and societal initiatives to tackle them. Addiction aims to present a global view on addictive behaviours with a series that showcases regional perspectives on such behaviours from diverse areas. The series will give a voice to local research and healthcare communities, allowing them to elaborate on the current problems they encounter and on their recent innovations in science and care. It will hopefully also stimulate the potential for international collaborations.
We will be inviting submissions from expert researchers and are pleased to introduce the first article on India by Balhara et al. [1].
期刊介绍：
Addiction publishes peer-reviewed research reports on pharmacological and behavioural addictions, bringing together research conducted within many different disciplines.
Its goal is to serve international and interdisciplinary scientific and clinical communication, to strengthen links between science and policy, and to stimulate and enhance the quality of debate. We seek submissions that are not only technically competent but are also original and contain information or ideas of fresh interest to our international readership. We seek to serve low- and middle-income (LAMI) countries as well as more economically developed countries.
Addiction’s scope spans human experimental, epidemiological, social science, historical, clinical and policy research relating to addiction, primarily but not exclusively in the areas of psychoactive substance use and/or gambling. In addition to original research, the journal features editorials, commentaries, reviews, letters, and book reviews.
