A: As a health statistician at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)'s National Center for Health Statistics, was there something about alcohol that attracted your interest? DD: During my years at the National Center for Health Statistics, I worked on cleaning and analyzing data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), with a principal focus on AIDS awareness and prevention. During that time, NIAAA contracted with us to design an alcohol supplement Neratinib research buy for inclusion in the 1988 NHIS. Although I did not work directly on that supplement, I met Bridget Grant once or twice when she visited the Center and, when I saw a job listing for a position at NIAAA, I thought it would be a good match with my skills in survey design and statistical analysis. Bridget agreed, and I have been at NIAAA for the past 20 years. When I joined NIAAA in 1990 it was part of the Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Administration (ADAMHA). In 1992, ADAMHA's research components became discrete RVX-208 alcohol, drug and mental health institutes within the National Institutes of Health, and its service components formed the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The component of NIAAA in which I worked, the Division of Biometry and Epidemiology, was divided in 2003 to reflect distinctions between its intramural and extramural functions. My responsibilities at NIAAA have always been intramural, i.e. to conduct research, rather than to manage grants to external investigators. A: Important personal influences on your alcohol research career? DD: Since joining NIAAA, I have been fortunate to work with many individuals who have helped me to develop substantive expertise in alcohol research. Foremost among these is Bridget Grant, chief of BMS-777607 mouse the Laboratory of Epidemiology and Biometry, who taught me a great deal about the nature and measurement of alcohol use disorder, as well as about comorbidity and psychiatric epidemiology in general. Most importantly, she provided me with the opportunity to be an integral part of the landmark surveys that NIAAA has conducted over the past two decades, the NLAES and the two waves of the NESARC. Soon after I joined NIAAA, Bridget invited me to participate in a National Institutes of Health/World Health Organization (NIH/WHO) collaborative study on the cultural applicability of the diagnostic criteria for AUD, a project that gave me the chance to meet Robin Room. Robin pointed me towards the archives of material produced by the Alcohol Research Group in Berkeley, California, and that marked the beginning of my interest in measuring alcohol consumption and its associations with alcohol problems. A: Other influential people? DD: Tom Harford, who was the director of the Division of Biometry and Epidemiology during my early years at NIAAA, was another early NIAAA influence who inspired my interest in the social epidemiology of alcohol use.
