  • Substance Use Disorders Among Women: Reasons for Concern—and Hope

    Substance Use Disorders Among Women: Reasons for Concern—and Hope
    Oct 30 2025
    Rates of substance use disorder are rising among women and adolescent girls. In this episode, the psychiatrist Shelly F. Greenfield, whose research focuses on gender differences in addiction, explains the situation—and what can be done. Through her work, Greenfield helps us see addiction as what it truly is: a treatable health condition. Released on October 30, 2025. Part of this podcast was recorded in early 2025, before the current federal administration, and reflects the situation at that time. Since then, significant cuts to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration—the agency within the US Department of Health and Human Services that leads efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation—and the termination of grants have dramatically affected federal resources. The resources posted for this podcast, however, reflect the current moment and are accurate as of the date of its release (October 30, 2025). Episode Transcript Guest Shelly F. Greenfield is a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and the Kristine M. Trustey Endowed Chair in Psychiatry and chief of the Division of Women’s Mental Health at McLean Hospital. Her research investigates the rising rates of substance use, substance-related health and social consequences in women and girls in the United States, and treatment and health services delivery.

    Women have played essential roles in the American film industry since its inception—as actors, writers, directors, producers, and an array of other positions—but they have long been both underrepresented and underrecognized when compared with men. On Radcliffe Day 2025—as part of a program honoring the 2025 Radcliffe Medalist Jodie Foster—industry insiders took part in a panel discussion to consider the evolving nature of women’s representation and recognition in the film and television industries, both as subjects and as creators. Released on June 13, 2025. ⁠Episode Transcript⁠ Guests Amy Brenneman ’86 is a television, stage, and film actor, writer, and producer and a founding member of Cornerstone Theater Company, which produces site-specific, community-based theater on themes of social justice.

Paul Professor of Constitutional Law at Harvard Law School, and a professor of history in the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences.
