Our work
Our impact
The Grayken Center is a national leader in clinical care, research, policy, and advocacy related to substance use disorders. Our programs, most of which are based on best practices developed at BMC, serve patients from birth through geriatric care in over approximately 2,500 patient visits per month. In addition, our researchers publish approximately 100 papers annually, helping to build the future of addiction medicine.
Stories of recovery at Grayken
Stigma is most often the primary reason why people don't receive the addiction treatment they need. Grayken hopes to bring addiction out of the shadows by telling the stories of recovery and the research that goes behind what we do.
"Behind the Evidence" podcast
In Season 2, Episode 3 of the Grayken Center for Addiction’s podcast “Behind the Evidence,” host Honora Englander, MD interviews Ayesha Appa, MD on her recent publication examining the impact of stimulant use among people receiving long-term opioid therapy for pain.
