October 3, 2019 DISCUSSION TOPIC Herbert Kleber www.cnet.com/news/google-doodle-honors-dr-herbert-kleber-changed-how-drug-addiction-is-viewed Herbert Kleber, who changed how we view drug addiction, was honored by Google Doodle on 9/30/19, the 23rd anniversary of his election to the National Academy of Medicine, a volunteer organization that provides advice on health and medical advice. The American psychiatrist saved countless lives in the process. just a few days before the first anniversary of his death, at the age of 84 he died Oct. 5, 2018. (article by: Steven Musil) Real Hope Support – Sharptown UMC . Dr. Herbert Kleber dedicated more than half his life to treating drug addiction, spending more than 50 years studying the causes of substance abuse and developing treatments to reduce the effects of withdrawal. His work changed the way addiction is viewed and treated and helped save countless lives. When he began his career, substance abuse wasn't a major focus of research for the medical community. His research in addiction began when he was deployed to a prison hospital in Lexington, Kentucky, where inmates were being treated for addiction. After noticing that the majority of patients would relapse after release, Kleber developed his "evidence-based treatment," treating addiction as a medical condition instead of a failure of moral character. His approach stresses the importance of research, employing the use of medication and therapy to prevent patient relapses. In 1964, he took a faculty position at the Yale University School of Psychiatry, where he founded the Drug Dependence Unit in 1968. He served as the unit's head for more than two decades before being appointed in 1989 by President George H.W. Bush to serve as deputy director for Demand Reduction at the Office of National Drug Control Policy. During his five-decade career, Kleber authored more than 250 papers and articles on addiction and how to treat it and was co-editor of the American Psychiatric Press Textbook of Substance Abuse Treatment. During his time at Yale, and later Columbia University, he mentored generations of researchers who would go on to be leaders in the substance abuse field. ___________________________________________________________ Be Encouraged! Lives are filled with various forms of temptations. It’s our forgiving God’s words where people can find the encouragement and strength to overcome these cravings. This Bible verse provides inspiration to overcoming the power of addiction with the faith and spirit of the Lord. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 Real Hope Support – Sharptown UMC Serenity Prayer - Long version God grant me the Serenity To accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And the Wisdom to know the difference.

  • Background to the Celebration of Herbert D. Kleber (1904 -2018) by Thomas A
    1 Background to the Celebration of Herbert D. Kleber (1904 -2018) by Thomas A. Ban By the mid-1990s the pioneering generation in neuropsychopharmacology was fading away. To preserve their legacy the late Oakley Ray (1931-2007), at the time Secretary of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ACNP), generated funds from Solway Pharmaceuticals for the founding of the ACNP-Solway Archives in Neuropsychopharmacology. Ray also arranged for the videotaping of interviews (mainly by their peers) with the pioneers, mostly at annual meetings, to be stored in the archives. Herbert Kleber was interviewed by Andrea Tone, a medical historian at the Annual Meeting of the College held in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on December 7, 2003 (Ban 2011a; Kleber 2011a). The endeavor that was to become known as the “oral history project” is based on 235 videotaped interviews conducted by 66 interviewers with 213 interviewees which, on the basis of their content, were divided and edited into a 10-volume series produced by Thomas A. Ban, in collaboration with nine colleagues who were to become volume editors. One of them, Herbert Kleber, was responsible for the editing of Volume Six, dedicated to Addiction (Kleber 2011b). The series was published by the ACNP with the title “An Oral History of Neuropsychopharmacology Peer Interviews The First Fifty Years” and released at the 50th Anniversary Meeting of the College in 2011 (Ban 2011b). Herbert Daniel Kleber was born January 19, 1934, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. His family’s father’s side was from Vilnius, Lithuania, and the Mother’s side was from Germany. Both families came to the United State during the first decade of the 20th century.

    United States General Accounting Office GAO Report to Congressional Requesters June 1996 COCAINE TREATMENT Early Results From Various Approaches GOA years 1921 - 1996 GAO/HEHS-96-80 United States General Accounting Office GAO Washington, D.C. 20548 Health, Education, and Human Services Division B-265688 June 7, 1996 The Honorable William F. Clinger, Jr. Chairman The Honorable Cardiss Collins Ranking Minority Member Committee on Government Reform and Oversight House of Representatives The Honorable Henry A. Waxman House of Representatives Cocaine use in the United States remains a serious and costly epidemic. In 1994, the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse conservatively estimated that more than three-quarters of a million people had used cocaine at least once a week within the past year. In 1993, cocaine was associated with almost 4,000 deaths.1 Today, an estimated $10 billion per year is lost in cocaine-related crimes and productivity.2 Although cocaine admissions to state-supported drug abuse treatment programs between 1985 and 1990 increased dramatically—from almost 39,000 people to more than 200,000—we found in 1991 that an effective treatment for cocaine addiction had not yet been identified.3 Today, public/private expenditures on cocaine-related treatment total about $1 billion per year. Because of cocaine’s serious health, economic, and criminal justice implications for the nation, we have provided a status report on recent progress made in finding an effective treatment for cocaine users.4 Specifically, we reviewed the various types of federally funded treatment approaches evaluated over the past 5 years (1991 through 1995) to (1) determine the extent to which these therapies have proven successful and (2) identify additional research initiatives necessary to increase our knowledge of cocaine treatment effectiveness.

    PHOENIX HOUSE FOUNDATION ORAL HISTORY PROJECT The Reminiscences of Herbert Kleber Columbia Center for Oral History Columbia University 2015 PREFACE The following oral history is the result of a recorded interview with Herbert Kleber conducted by Lance Thurner on January 23, 2015. This interview is part of the Phoenix House Foundation Oral History Project. The reader is asked to bear in mind that s/he is reading a verbatim transcript of the spoken word, rather than written prose. Kleber – Session 1 – 3 1PM Session #1 Interviewee: Herbert Kleber Location: New York City, NY Interviewer: Lance Thurner Date: January 23, 2015 Q: So this is Lance Thurner and I am in the offices at Columbia University’s Psychiatric Institute to interview Herb Kleber as part of the Phoenix House Oral History Project. It is January 23rd, 2015, roughly one o’clock in the afternoon. As you know, Dr. Kleber, this interview is part of our effort to record the history of Phoenix House. Although I want to track your career and the way the field has changed over the last sixty years or so, I’d like to keep this with Phoenix House in mind and with the idea of the therapeutic community, and where it came from, and how it’s changed. I would like to start with just a little bit about how you came into, first, psychiatry, and then addiction work, and what the state of the field was like when you began. Kleber: I did my psychiatric residency at Yale [University] from ’61 to ’64. Then, they were drafting doctors, but if you volunteered, they would let you stay out until after you finished your residency.

    CORPORATE CRIME AND THE REGULATORY STATE: THE CASE OF PURDUE PHARMA AND OXYCONTIN® By O. HAYDEN GRIFFIN, III A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 O. HAYDEN GRIFFIN, III 2 To my mother and father, thanks for all the love and support through the odyssey that was my education. You both mean the world to me and none of this would have been possible without the two of you. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would first like to thank Joe Spillane for being my mentor for the full five years I was a graduate student at the University of Florida. From the advice he provided on seminar papers, to suggesting books and articles I should read, to critiquing my ideas, to shaping my research agenda, to the endless work he did with me on my dissertation – no other person will likely have the same impact on my career. I have not always made things easy for myself and unfortunately, this has often provided him with more than a few headaches along the way. Thus, I would like to thank him for seeing me through; I will always be grateful. I would like to thank Lonn Lanza-Kaduce for all the help he has provided me as both an advisor, a teacher and a committee member. I would also like to thank him for providing me with the opportunity to teach and all the advice he provided, especially early in my tenure in graduate school.

  • Drug Abuse Treatment
    Drug Abuse Treatment NN0026 Introduction The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) supports more than 85 percent of the world’s research on drug abuse and addiction. NIDA-funded research enables scientists to apply the most advanced techniques available to the study of every aspect of drug abuse, including: • genetic and social determinants of vulnerability and response to drugs; • short- and long-term effects of drugs on the brain, including addiction; • other health and social impacts of drug abuse, including infectious diseases and economic costs; • development and testing of medication and behavioral treatments for abuse and addiction; and • development and evaluation of effective messages to deter young people, in particular, from abusing drugs. Included in this document are selections of topic-specific articles reprinted from NIDA’s research newsletter, NIDA NOTES. Six times per year, NIDA NOTES reports on important highlights from NIDA-sponsored research, in a format that specialists and lay readers alike can read and put to use. Selections like the current one are intended to remind regular NIDA NOTES readers and inform other readers of important research discoveries during the periods they cover. We hope the information contained here answers your needs and interests.
