Noted Ash Bhatt, M.D., Sovereign Health Group's Chief Medical Officer, "As the scientific and treatment communities have come to understand and recognize addiction as a disease, Tonmoy Sharma's presentation will help to better understand the influence illicit drugs and alcohol have on the pathogenesis of disease severity and cognitive deficits. Equally critical are the potential benefits of certain treatments, such as cognitive remediation, on reversing these deficits."
