"Addiction is a chronic brain disease, not a moral failing."
Get ready to be moved by real-life accounts of recovery as Dr. Quyen Ngo joins hosts DeAnn and Craig to unravel the intricate world of addiction treatment. Dr. Ngo, a clinical psychologist and Director at the Butler Center for Research, dives into the science behind addiction and explores how technology, from wearables to AI, could revolutionise long-term recovery.
You’ll hear about the concept of lifelong recovery and how it aims to provide continuous support post-discharge, challenging the outdated notion that addiction treatment is a one-time fix. Dr. Ngo emphasises the importance of viewing addiction as a chronic brain disease rather than a moral failing, advocating for a more holistic approach to treatment. The episode also touches on the hurdles of integrating AI into personalised care and the delicate balance between innovation and standardisation in addiction research.
With engaging anecdotes and expert insights, this conversation promises to shed light on the future of addiction treatment and recovery support systems. Tune in to learn how technology might just be the key to more human-centred recovery processes.
