Consistent with traditional conceptions of technology transfer, efforts to translate substance abuse and addiction research into treatment practice have typically relied on the passive dissemination of research findings. The large gap between addiction research and practice, however, indicates that there are many barriers to successful technology transfer and that dissemination alone is not sufficient to produce lasting changes in addiction treatment. To accelerate the translation of research into practice, the National Institute on Drug Abuse launched the Blending Initiative in 2001. In part a collaboration with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration/Center for Substance Abuse Treatment's Addiction Technology Transfer Center program, this initiative aims to improve the development, effectiveness, and usability of evidence-based practices and reduce the obstacles to their timely adoption and implementation.
与传统的技术转让观念一致，将药物滥用和成瘾研究转化为治疗实践的努力通常依赖于研究结果的被动传播。然而，成瘾研究与实践之间的巨大差距表明，成功的技术转让存在许多障碍，仅靠传播不足以在成瘾治疗中产生持久的变化。为了加速研究向实践的转化，美国国家药物滥用研究所于2001年发起了融合倡议。该倡议部分是与药物滥用和心理健康服务管理局/药物滥用治疗中心的成瘾技术转让中心项目合作开展的，旨在改善循证实践的开发、有效性和可用性，并减少及时采用和实施这些实践的障碍。
