ECAD is ready to announce our second conference within the framework of the Baltic Spice Alert project, a project on new psychoactive substances in the Baltic Sea region: 
Why do most drug-related deaths occur in the Baltic Sea region?
A one-day conference on May 27, in Tallinn, Estonia.
The unprecedented emergence of potentially fatal psychoactive substances, many of which are not under international control has led to their increased abuse, hospital emergencies and sometimes fatalities.
ECAD wishes to consider why particularly this European region has become infamous for the latter. Do we have the worst situation with the notorious psychoactive substances – in the whole EU - or is it the way we are collecting drug-related mortality statistics that plays in here? Or, maybe, something else?
We would like to have a discussion on this in Tallinn.
We organize this conference with a support of Tallinn City Council. You are most welcome to join ECAD at the picturesque Tallinn Mayors´ Residence, Jaan Poska maaja, J. Poska street 8.
The core group will make a study visit to the Estonian Forensic Science Institute on May 26, the day before the conference. Do you want to join us? Contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
