Last week the University of Kentucky was awarded an $87 M grant from the National Institutes of Health for a new program, HEAL-ing Communities, addressing opioid addiction. It’s one of many preventive initiatives undertaken by the NIH and our own Dr. Greg Davis scored a one on one interview with associate director of prevention, Dr. David Murray. Just a few days prior to the big grant announcement Dr. Murray was in Lexington on the UK campus giving a talk on primary and secondary NIH prevention programs. Dr. Greg was eager to discuss how Kentucky factored into those efforts.
