Texas Node


The Texas Node comprises the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas (UT Southwestern) and seven CTPs in Dallas, Ft. Worth, Austin, and El Paso. UT Southwestern brings together a faculty with extensive experience in the preclinical and clinical study of substance use disorders, the design, implementation, and analysis of multi-site, efficacy-effectiveness clinical trials in both adolescents and adults, the pharmacological treatment of comorbid disorders, and cultural issues in addiction. UT Southwestern faculty collaborate with CTPs representing over 11,000 annual inpatient and outpatient admissions for a primary substance use disorder, with large populations of Hispanic/Latino, African-American, adolescent, and female patients. The CTPs and associated sites also offer specialized treatment and outreach programs for HIV+ patients.
