Acutis Summer Webinar, July 18, 2019

Updated: Nov 22, 2021

The Synthetics, Part I: Designer Drugs on the Horizon Led by Dr. Daniela Zaborskis and featuring Senior Researcher, Mumtaz Akhtar




Our Summer Webinar has provided a review and expert opinion in a discussion on the pharmacological, medical and social implications of designer drugs: synthetic cannabinoids and fentanyl analogs.


The prevalence of these substances constitutes a crisis, which compels us to hone our understanding of these substances, and to better deliver the most effective diagnoses and care. 


The seminar offered:

  • A summary of two types of designer drugs: fentanyl analogs and synthetic cannabinoids

  • A review of the basic pharmacology of these dangerous and illicit substances

  • A discussion of the seemingly innumerable varieties of drugs being abused



Moderator:

PhD, Director of Operations and Senior Scientist





Featuring

Mumtaz Akhtar Acutis’ Senior Researcher




These and other relevant areas of interest were illustrated with case studies and specific “take-home” points.

In addition to having the opportunity to participate in an important and focused discussion, participants earned continuing medical education credits.
