The organizing committee and Dr. Julie Bruneau would like to thank you for attending the “Regroupements de recherche en dépendances au Québec: convergences et synergies” symposium which was held on September 27, the first event of its nature in collaboration with the Institut Universitaire sur les Dépendances (IUD).
