Breitinger, M.D. ResearchMayo Clinic's addiction programs have a long history of incorporating advances in the medical understanding of addiction and related medical and emotional problems. Doctors and scientists are doing research to better understand how genetics relates to alcohol, drugs and other addictions. They concentrate on developing individualized strategies for addiction treatment. Goals include identifying biomarkers, also called biological markers, which indicate a tendency to develop addictive disorders. Another goal is to identify biomarkers that reflect the ability to respond to specific treatment options. Mayo Clinic patients can participate in leading-edge research.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
