#NIHfunded study finds opioid overdose deaths declined by 59% for those on methadone & 38% for those on buprenorphine. Yet >2/3 of OUD patients were not prescribed meds. We need to knock down barriers to prescribing these potentially life-saving meds. bit.ly/2JPOpUb

What makes someone more susceptible to the flu? Researchers may have found a biomarker whose prevalence in the bloodstream can tell us who is more likely to get really sick from the flu, across multiple strains. #NIHfunded bit.ly/2MszaOF
