The Missouri Center for Addiction Research and Engagement (MO-CARE) is a multi-disciplinary collaboration seeking to better understand and prevent addictive behaviors.  

Started in 2019, MO-CARE coordinates the work of addiction investigators across the University of Missouri System to meet the needs of Missourians affected by addiction through innovative research, enhancing remote access to care, and training the next generation of addiction researchers and treatment providers. 

Collaborations between health care providers and MO-CARE lead to holistic and more precise interventions.
