PI : Kent Hutchison, Ph.D.h.D.
Interests:
I returned to the University
of New Mexico in October of 2007 after working in the private sector
briefly after completing my residency training. I realized that I
wanted to be more actively involved in research and education of both
medical students and residents.
I am currently working in
the field of addiction psychiatry and the dually diagnosed. My research
interests are alcohol dependence and the phenomenon of relapse.
Specifically, I am interested in looking at the relationship between
anxiety and relapse, and in developing interventions to prevent relapse.
