Australia and New Zealand are among the few regions of the world in which use of illicit substances remains within the top 10 causes of disease burden. The ability to study each substance class has been limited by their low population prevalence in single population-based cohort studies.
The Monitoring Illicit Substance Use (MISUse) Consortium was established to address this problem by bringing together four mature prospective cohort studies across Australia and New Zealand.
This presentation will address the early developments of the MISUse Consortium and the challenges and strengths of working with cross-cohort data. We will examine the current research efforts and future directions intended for this project.
