Laura Polakova
M.A. Student
Currently, I am an MA student conducting my thesis at the Royal Mental Health Centre. My thesis examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on treatment access among those presenting to the Rapid Access Addictions Medicine (RAAM) clinic with opioid related problems. While I have a special interest in substance use my research interests also extend past this. In fact, I am also particularly interested in moral psychology, and cognitive and emotional development.
Keywords: Substance use, moral psychology, childhood development
