ARCR Celebrates Its 50th Anniversary

2024 marks the 50th anniversary of Alcohol Research: Current Reviews (ARCR), an open-access, peer-reviewed journal published by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) at the National Institutes of Health.

1996

The journal contributes to the conversation on alcohol policies (Volume 20, Number 4), summarizing a wealth of information on the effects of recent alcohol policies—such as minimum legal drinking age laws, drinking-and-driving prevention, alcohol taxation, and the use of harm reduction approaches—and how science can inform policy development.
