The MiBEST study explores topics such as substance use, barriers to treatment, and healthcare utilization. Participants who report past month use of opioids and another substance (such as stimulants or alcohol) will be invited to complete a series of interviews and surveys over the course of a year.
With this data, we expect to learn more about how and why people use multiple substances, which in turn will help inform future efforts to improve care and decrease barriers to accessing treatment. Advance research today and join our compensated study from wherever you are!
