David H. Epstein, Ph.D., is an Associate Scientist in the Treatment Section at the NIDA Intramural Research Program in Baltimore. He earned his doctorate in 1998 in the Biopsychology & Behavioral Neuroscience program at Rutgers University, studying both behavioral pharmacology in rats and neuropsychological assessment in humans, and teaching courses on drug use and addiction. Since then, he has overseen clinical trials and natural-history studies in polydrug-misusing outpatients. His research interests include multilevel modeling of repeated-measures data, using ambulatory technology for assessment and treatment, and integrating social-structural with person-level explanations of behavior.
