Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research - BC Website

The Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research (CISUR), formerly the Centre for Addictions Research of BC, is a network of individuals and groups dedicated to the study of substance use and addiction in support of community-wide efforts to promote health and reduce harm. Our research is used to inform a broad range of projects, reports, publications and initiatives aimed at providing all people in BC and beyond with access to happier, healthier lives, whether using substances or not.  In 2021, CISUR was named the World Health Organization Collaborating Centre on Alcohol and Public Health Policy Research.
